I wonder how the mint is going to portray the 'Youth' Sports theme. I think they shouldn't recognize a single person on each quarter (5 for each year - for a 4 year span) that is 20 quarters total. After all in Youth sports Everybody gets a "Participation medal/ribbon/what ever" thing. So will they just show each sport? like: Dodgeball Kick ball Soft Ball Mini Golf Tether Ball Tennis Football Base ball and especially CORNHOLE!!  when I was a kid (about 10 years old), we used to play Lawn DartsNothing is more fun than to toss a heavy steel dart into the sky and see where it lands. Etc...

To be determined, but earlier this year the Mint sent out a survey to get opinions of which sports to celebrate. A couple of us suggested cornholel.

Fun fact: In the summer of 1984 I punctured the hood of my mom's freshly painted 1978 Lincoln Continental Mark V. My younger brother and I were trying to see who could throw one the highest. My upward aim was a bit... off.

Are the American Innovation $1 from 2018 to date for the P and D mints are all from rolls or bags, not from any set? Also the regular proofs are all separate purchases and not included in any other proof sets? I know the Reverse Proofs are all separate sets. Just trying to sort everything out. Gotta figure out the Presidential dollars Set next.

Hi Dearborn, et al, I maybe a year or two off on the date, but the mint use to offer s mint rolls and bags without having to purchase p and d. You were able to purchase all three together as well. The change probably came about with the beginning of the American Women Quarter series in 2022.

Quote:Are the American Innovation $1 from 2018 to date for the P and D mints are all from rolls or bags, not from any set? Correct. Quote: Also the regular proofs are all separate purchases and not included in any other proof sets? Also correct. Quote: I know the Reverse Proofs are all separate sets. For the first three years (2018, 2019,and 2020), they were sold individually in a fancy, informative OGP about the size of a CD jewel case. Starting in fourth year (2021-), they have been sold in sets like the regular proof.

The Maryland 2020 American Innovation Reverse Proof Dollar is very hard to find. The one's I see are almost $50...yikes.

Just ordered this set of 4 Innovative $ Proof sets on ebay for $39. It has the 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, no boxes and the cases have a little bit of scratches. I'll be removing them for an album anyway so that doesn't matter. It's hard trying to catch up but trying to find some deals. Chipping away at the set.

Quote: Have to wonder what happened to them. It's an online pawn shop, so probably somebody turned them in like that. Which is fine, since I'm breaking them out anyway.
