I don't know about collecting the entire set, but the 2010 coins are worth investigating and buying should the opportunity present itself. Eventually these will only be collected by design or state, few people are going to attempt the entire set, particularly if silver rises.
I am hearing on other forums that the Yellowstone uncirculated release date is Tuesday, May 17th for $279.95. The Mint can go higher than this, but $279.95 seems to the baseline price for this series.

There is no date on mint website yet, and I would think they would give the date out a bit earlier, about a month or so?

Just checked the PCGS price guide. Grand Canyon MS-69 $350.00 Grand Canyon First Strike MS-69 $850!!
REALLY?!?!?! Spending an extra $18 at the time of grading for nothing more then two words added to a label is worth $500?! There is not a single difference in the coin between the two and one is worth this much more?
Makes one think, 'buy the holder, not the coin'

Expect an "approval" phone call this week. Followed for another month by "Commodities" statements mailed to you. Then a transfer to their outsourced shipper. Then anybodys guess as to knowing how long to ship. Don't even ask as nobody has received a Pru set yet.

Beckett used to do the same thing to sports card pricing, and don't think this does not happen.

Don't forget the: Quote: FIRST STRIKE DESIGNATION Service Fee + $18 Add 5 days to turnaround time ...Try and explain that one....FIVE days and $18 to print two words on a label?

I wonder if there is a federal law about price manipulation?

It's just a price "guide" no laws broken for wishful thinking

acloco- Absolutely. If there was any enforcement, do you you think every gas station in town would sell for the same price, and change prices up and down within minutes of each other?

Just got my Hot Springs P. Looks great. I can't even see a flaw with 5x magnification.
