Regarding the sealed box within a box question...If they are anything like the 20th Anniversary sets the sets inside will not be sealed..presentation box/COA inside a box inside a sleeve inside an unsealed plastic bag. Here it is if anyone is interested: (sorry for the pic quality...I just threw them on the table and shot)

That's kinda what I figured. I think I will just go ahead and pay the extra $4.95 per set and slug through the website doldrums to order as many sets as I can one at a time to guarantee that I get individually sealed sets.

It's still possible that it may be packaged differently than 5 years ago though right ? .....

The 20th Anniversary packaging is probably the nicest the Mint ever produced for a silver coin. The quality is akin to the gold and platinum boxes for single and sets of four proof coins. Not too impressed with demo packaging for the 25th, but it'll be the contents that'll be more important.

Ouch. I suppose that was to be expected, but I was really hoping the $229.99 price would stick.

I'm just thrilled that it's not the $349.99 to $379.99 that I was expecting.

Based on individual coin price, this set is priced over $50 above normal. Do you all feel the box is worth $50? This set should have been $259.95. Am a bit dissapointed at the price.
