Curiouser And Curiouser: 2026 Congrats Set Is A Philly, No Dual Date Or Privy?

Thanks! Aileron - because I like things that have ailerons on them! Or throttles, or rudders, or elevators ....

(I can't figure out how to quote a post)

Same here - a couple hundred in various Cherokees.

Roughly a week ago, I got an email from the Mint, the typical one that says to make sure your payment info is up to date and you have until a certain time to cancel the subscription, just typical warning email from the Mint. My subs are different, I have 3 separate subs on the congrats, one on the W proof. I did get 4 emails, one for each, so it really looks like I'm getting the 3 Congrats (I feel slightly guilty over it, but this was not done in any rush to get them, as a matter of fact I had 2 active subs on the Congrats already, the third one was paused, I just unpaused it. I got 2 last year on subscription.)
My guess is if you subscribed to 3 before they altered it to 1, they'll let you have it. I won't be broken hearted if they take me back to 1. All in the game.

Judging by current asking prices on ebay, I doubt many are aware how 'rare' this ASE actually is. Kudos to this forum!

Starting in 2013 through 2016 the Congratulations set Residents were from the West Point Mints,

2017 the First exception was the San Francisco mint released that ASE,

American Silver Eagles from 2021 through 2025 Residents were from the West Point Mints.

So in answer to the question asked would be No it is Not, ....

PS, Agreed that Most of the general public have no clue as to the rarity this coin has, Many will realize toooo late in the game.


And this is Why, Mint marks Matter.....

Just to go through a few questions and statements I see, on ebay I see people trying to flip raw OGP Congrats sets trying to make ~$100 on them, $260 range. Not bad if you missed out. The graded ones some people are looking for big money, up in the $800 range or so. 69s a bit less. Hard to say where this might settle out. I'll hang on to my spares.




In deference to Morgan's Dad, the answer is yes it is. The 2017S was also available in the 2017 Limited Edition Silver Proof Set.

It sure doesn't happen often that a unique coin like this comes out. The instant rarity like this, I guess 2019 and 2020 were the last times this happened, the 19S ERP and the 2020 V75.
But the ones saying it seems a little under hyped are correct, not hearing as much about it as the last times releases like this happened. I think many are still in sticker shock mode.




I didn't know exactly the best quote to copy. I have an experience that may or may not pertain.
My wife wanted me to try to stop getting the mint notifications sent to our ISP email address. Fine, I got signed up with my Gmail email address. But they never stopped coming to the ISP address, I thought I had it all switched over. Turns out, when you get your account set up with the Mint, that the email address you use is basically your account name to them, not like your name, like you'd think. I had thought about cancelling that account and starting another, but seriously afraid, since I discovered this, that I'd lose my subscriptions that I have, especially right now.
So to Morgan's Dad, I'd ask if your are using your same email address to sign in with that you've always used. I can't sign in using my Gmail address, it's like that doesn't even exist, but I do get emails sent there, it's still not my US Mint account email.

As far as the website itself, sorry to disagree, but keeps getting better and better for me, and I'm not techie really. The last couple releases, it actually recognized me and "made me" sign in to my account after I dropped something in my check out "bag" and went to check out, resulting in free shipping. IDK the last time I had to pay for shipping, quite awhile. Even the gold sac dollar last year, went priority even, no charge.
