I might have kept the subscription if the prices were what they were ten years ago.  |

I probably will let my subscriptions for the Morgan/Peace proofs and reverse proofs expire after this year. I enjoy the ones I've received, but it's enough. That will leave my subscriptions for the women's quarters silver proof set, a program that ends next year, and the Innovation proof and reverse proof series, which are inexpensive and often have interesting designs. I recently finished acquiring the 2019-2020 W quarters set in MS66. Those have been pulled from circulation by collectors and most look nice, but I'm thinking those should hold their value as the years pass. The same ought to be true for the 2015-W proof dime, which is unique in the series and sells unslabbed on ebay for $25-$50 or so. Here's hoping we get some more short run sets (of coins, not medals) that non-millionaires can collect. |

My set arrived today: To my eye, the Peace Obverse and Morgan Reverse are what a Reverse Proof coin should look like: frosty white fields:  The finish of the Peace reverse and Morgan obverse are identical but the fields are almost a satin finish, more gray than white:      A bubble style mailer (with more substantial padding than the mailer used on the FH medal) was used for shipment. Outer sleeve, inner box, and clamshell holder all in good shape. My set did not come with a COA.  . To rectify this, I have to return the set. The USM will not mail a COA.  Edited by cptbilly

I didn't mind the new mailer, but I had a devil of a time getting the capsules open. I mean, they are always a bit on the tight side, but this is the first time I actually damaged my thumbnail trying to get them open.

" To an All Original Packaging Collector, For Medals, Coins, Proof sets, Uncirculated sets, etc...That is a Must !!!! In my opinion the U S Dis-Appoint-Mints should keep Quality and packaging as equals.....Protect those coins and medals. It almost seems they are testing the waters with these, ......
