At that price there may not be any packaging. Probably just the coin in a capsule with the coa?

That'd be fine with me, but I bet there's packaging like the '99 SBA.

Of course if you're in the loyalty program and have placed 3 orders already this year, then the shipping is free  Quote:...but I bet there's packaging like the '99 SBA. Maybe, but then it's unusual that the website doesn't show the packaging.

At $6.95, I'm thinking it won't be packaged like the '99 SBA. The price is too low.

The mint's 2019 product schedule shows that there's going to be reverse proofs for each of the four dollars. It also shows that there's going to be an uncirculated (P)(D) coin set. That's 16 coins for 2019.

Quote: That's 16 coins for 2019. Yup. What I don't understand is why they'll only be releasing the reverse proof as an individual coin and not a set like the unc and proof. Would make too much sense maybe?

I'll just get a few unc ones for the grand and god children. See here are some more coins you will never be able to use :)

I'm pretty sure they had been getting a lot of feedback over the last year or so that people didn't want to be paying significant premiums for packaging anymore

I like the design. I haven't ordered anything from the mint in a couple of years now, but I would like to get some of these. I wish the free shipping promotion wasn't ending a few days before this becomes available though.

Quote: it may just be a cardboard box. Was figuring the same. On a recent email from the mint it states each attractively packaged coin comes with a coa . Wonder if that's the mints idea of "attractive packaging".
