Normally, I would respond somewhat snarkily to the effect that I prefer the OGP for sets like this and wouldn't waste the money on a gimmicky repackaging like this. In this case, however, the OGP was a real let down:   So, yeah, your set looks really nice and I hope you get lots of enjoyment out of it! |

I actually like the OGP. It has a somewhat retro feel to it.
I did not like how tight the capsules were in the holders, but they loosened up over time.

I like the OGP ... now have both.
Not sure what would qualify as a waste of money.
I always watch out for good deals. Sometime you are made
an offer you can't refuse.
I don't really remember what the OGP cost, but I think I paid
less for this set..

The original issue price was $99.95.

You got a great deal and a great set, especially if you paid less than the issue price. I had no idea that the prices have dropped that much. I like this set and I have one in OGP. I guess I will have to keep it now.

Had to come back to the thread and look at this set again. Beautiful coins......I'm always a sucker for super nice Kennedy and Franklin halves. |

I have the OGP as well, but wouldn't mind acquiring a 70-graded set.
I was very surprised how long it took for this set to sell out from the Mint.

Yes, so was I. I was worried about missing out when it was released and was happy to get one that day.

Not getting a slabbed set, but I'm hopeful to pick up the set in the original Govt. packaging from the LCS this weekend!! These sets are gorgeous!
