Thanks for the images, CB. These look great! I'd put the gold $5 Legion coin up with the U.S. Marshals coin. Great design!

I really like the dollar design even more seeing it as an actual coin image.  |

Just received the mailer for the program. Introductory prices for the non-gold coins are as follows: Half Proof: $27.95 Half Unc: $25.95 $1 Proof: $54.95 $1 Unc: $51.95 Also of note, the 3-coin set has a product limit of 7,500 (no price yet), and the "American Legion Proof Silver Dollar and American Veteran Silver Medal Set" has a product limit of 10,000. No date for the medal set, but it's something to watch.  |

Does the mailer have a photo of the medal? I don't recall seeing one yet  Quote:
Also of note, the 3-coin set has a product limit of 7,500 (no price yet) AFAIK the Mint still hasn't published a grid/table for 2019 Pricing of Numismatic Gold, Commemorative Gold, Platinum, and Palladium Products ( 2018 is still what's available). Since the last few year's commemoratives didn't include a 3 coin set, a 2019 table is needed to see how the price of the 3 coin set will fluctuate with the Au spot price. If the Mint doesn't publish a 2019 grid/table with a column for the 3 coin set, then I guess its price will fluctuate in the same increments as individual Au coins. Edited by BadDog

Not sure why some do not like the half dollar design. I love it! What's wrong with you guys?! LOL.

I sense some sarcasm but, I'll bite.  I like the half design well enough (particularly the flag side), and I'll probably get it, but it doesn't hold a candle to the silver and gold designs IMHO. |

The three coin set is on my list for 12 noon Thursday, 14. Love the designs as many have posted. My only concern, rather curiosity, is how the 5 dollar will look being .850 inches in diameter. May be a bit small for such tight detail.

With Au spot in the $1,250-$1,299.99 range the price of the set is $489.25. If it gets the normal $5 discount for the first 30 days, then it looks like the initial price of the set will be $484.25. If Au bumps up above $1,300, then the price for the set will increase by $12.25. The discount for the 3 coin set versus buying the 3 coins individually is a little more than $27. Edited by BadDog

It's funny how commemorative coins have better designs than regular circulation coinage. That eagle is AMAZING!

All other American Legion commemorative products have the initial $5 discount. I guess the Mint figures that the discount for buying the set versus the individual coins is sufficient by itself |
