Entered the tracking number 5-6 times and found that my package should be here sometime Friday.

My tracking says "Unfortunately we are unable to retrieve your tracking results at this time. Please try again later."


Mine says the same thing.

I received mine and the dime is rotated 90 degrees ccw.


You can open the lens (the two halves are not sealed) and carefully rotate it yourself. If there is nothing else wrong with the coin, it would be much easier to fix the rotation than return / exchange.

Tracking is live again. Last activity was late last night, "Shipment information sent to U.S. Postal Service." Delivery still shows Tuesday and I feel it is safe to say that is what it is going to be.

Agreed. Same lens they use for the proof sets. They have not been sealed since the late 1990's.

Ok, you guys just want to tell you that these coins will not go up in price.
The reason being I now have 5 sets , never done this before, so they will not go up.
Did not buy 5 to sale next week but might , years down the road.

I contacted Fedex this morning and they said they were having problems that affected many of their online services, but my tracking is back now. My set could easily have been delivered on Saturday if they actually understood the concept of moving a package on the weekend. Nevertheless, it was scheduled to be delivered today, but they transported it so slowly to my post office that my mail already came today without my receiving the package.

Mine as well. It is not the first time this has happened to me, so I am not sure why I thought it would be any different.

That is quite annoying. Luckily I never have this issue since my mail comes so late in the day.

Got my two sets today. I think they are the nicest looking sets the mint has put out in a long time. I just might order two more.

One of the side benefits of having a PO Box. If I know it's going by Smartpost (or the UPS equivalent for other packages), I'll have the package delivered to the PO Box so I don't have to worry about the package getting there after my carrier leaves and have to wait till the next day. Last time I did it, it took 30 mins to get the email saying I had a package ready for pickup in the PO Box once tracking said it arrived at the post office. And I have noticed the package seems to get there a day or 2 earlier. Can't explain why, but seems to arrive faster when addressed to the PO Box.
