Did this set actually sell out? The mint site shows it as unavailable. I wasn't really looking to get it but a friend asked me today.

I've only opened one of my ten, jbuck. I know I won't be keeping more than two of them, and am undecided as to whether sealed might be worth a little more. I guess I need to look into that.

Finally opened my two sets, and I'm very disappointed in the quality of the Philadelphia coins. Both P half dollars have bad water spots and hazing, along with one P Gettysburg quarter. Some coins have nicks or scratches in prime focal areas. That would be unacceptable for a $33 set, let alone a $124 set.  I will probably return the worst set and break up the other set for the Dansco. Regardless I'll have to purchase at least the P half dollar on the secondary market.
