Any guess on the potential price of the set?
The single medal with the packaging was $59.95 so four of the same brings it to $240. Take away a bit for the one package instead of four and I will go with $199.95...

I was thinking $219.95 or $224.95. Kind of bummed there's no edge lettering like the gold one. Any chance they'll add it to some on the set?

I am going to be optimistic and say the four medal set is priced right around $150.

$150 would be more manageable. I'd love to buy the set but $200+ will be out of my price range! I have kids to put in preschool! :)

Yeah, I have two boys in daycare. I've been trying to buy them both Mint items that I think will be interesting and do well long term for them both. If I have to pay 400 to get them both a set my wife would kill me.

I hope it is only $150 because I just dipped into my budget to feed my Ike itch.

@mellamobradley......I'd like to finish my slabbed wartime Jefferson nickel set with the major varieties at some point. I just purchased a 1945-p DDR, but still have the 1943-p doubled eye to go (and the henning). Would like to put the medal set 'on hold' but feel I'd miss out on something cool. Guess I could always wait and cherry pick a couple years later like I did the Kennedy silver set :)

Added to my calendar. Hopefully my budget will allow for this one. I will have to take it easy with the Ikes.

Mint & Finish designations:
Philadelphia - Reverse Proof San Francisco - Proof West Point - Enhanced Uncirculated Denver - Uncirculated
This means that the standalone medal (P-proof) will not be issued twice.
And the packaging looks exactly like the Kennedy set.

Ugh..... seeing those pictures and the packaging makes me want it even more. The stand alone medal is just so expensive. I can't make myself purchase it from the mint. I wouldn't mind paying $40 for it, but that's it.

Quote: And the packaging looks exactly like the Kennedy set. I agree. The setup and packaging looks like a lot like the 2014 Kennedy set. I love the Kennedy set, so I know I will have to get this one.  Looks like the early dollars for my 7070 are going to have to wait a wee bit longer.
