Nope - not interested in the least bit. The US Mint IMO has ruined their product and core fan base by offering overpriced gimmicky coins. Superhero coins - really.  I don't intend to pay attention to anything the US Mint offers.  |

Yeah, I think I am too, after this year's Uncirculated Mint Set, which is insanely overpriced, nearly quadrupling the cost of admission from just last year. If there's an issue of interest, in many cases it can be bought at a substantially lower price on the aftermarket if one isn't too obsessed with getting it ASAP. I have a US Mint Set collection, and 2026 looks like a pretty good year to call it completed. |

Now, if we can all *really* stick to our guns & stop buying this overpriced stuff after 2026, they will get the hint.

I think I'm one of the few actually looking forward to these. If the two-coin set coming out in the fall does indeed have the diamond finish, that'll make it two unique types in one year. It's a great time to be a tyoe collector Looks like toe 2017 Liberty set is getting moved :)  Edited by Boba Debt

If I'm reading the Mint site correctly, there are 5 separate SKUs and six coins.
The P mintmark/250 privy Proof on July 9 (26NG, 26NJ)
The W mintmark Uncirculated on August 25 (26NH, 26NK)
The Two coin set (26NL) in the fall
All are available as separate subscriptions...

There is so little continuity across the listings and respective subscriptions, it's hard to be sure. The new 250th coin designs sucked me back into the mint and proof sets after abandoning them a while back. But I am finished with the new Peace dollar collection given the new pricing and treatments. |

That the products will be different across the different product codes. Is it crystal clear to you given the descriptions and changes to products with the same subscription code used last year?
Even the Uncirculated Coin Set has some different langualge between the sub and regular product descriptions.
"The 2026 United States Mint Uncirculated Set includes two cards, each containing 10 encapsulated coins with uncirculated quality finishes.
vs
"U.S. Mint uncirculated coins are struck on special presses using greater force than what is used for circulating coins, producing a sharp, intricately detailed image. "

Based on previous discussions, it seemed generally accepted that if you have the Uncirculated Subscription for each separate dollar, you will receive the Enhanced Uncirculated versions. The individual Reverse Proof Subscriptions will be Reverse Proofs. The only uncertain one was the "Morgan and Peace dollar 2026 Two-Coin Set," which changes to "Morgan and Peace dollar Two-Coin Reverse Proof Set Subscription" when you subscribe to it. Now that the diamond finish appears to be a type of reverse proof, it's likely that's what that set will be. |

I one Morgan and one Peace the first year for my type set. I got the first year of the two coin reverse proof set because I liked how they looked. I lost interest after that. If not for the reverse proof set, I would have been out sooner because they robbed me of the 2022 Peace dollar that I really wanted. |

Will get the Dual Dated, 250 PM, Enhanced UNC Morgan and the Peace. . . .I have a subscription for the two coin proof set [ 26XS ] due in the Fall. . .no modern Morgan / Peace releases in 2027. As I've previously noted, sales for the two types in various versions have waned over the last few years. Not shocked the USM is discontinuing the series.
