jbuck Moderator United States 187862 Posts	Posted 02/23/2012 2:17 pm Interesting. Maybe it is some sort of special packaging with a place for a photo? I will join in the wait for an answer.

CelticKnot Bedrock of the Community United States 12815 Posts	Posted 02/23/2012 4:42 pm Yeah not something I'd buy for my collection but would make for a good "congratulations on the birth of your child" gift. Report this Post to the Staff
just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 02/23/2012 5:47 pm Kind of silly. Anyone could just order a Proof set and/or a Uncirculated set, add a photo of the kid to the package and POOF, you have a Birth Set. Report this Post to the Staff

Bizybackson Pillar of the Community United States 1817 Posts	Posted 02/23/2012 6:30 pm Uggh. They couldn't even include either the Sacagawea or a Presidential dollar. Sad rip-off of the RCM product. Report this Post to the Staff

Anyone could just order a Proof set and/or a Uncirculated set, add a photo of the kid to the package and POOF, you have a Birth Set. Amazing how common sense is becoming uncommon.

CaptainFwiffo Pillar of the Community United States 4132 Posts	Posted 02/24/2012 4:38 pm It's a lower price point than a mint or proof set - $19.95. That's under the $20 marker you might use when getting a gift for a co-worker who's having a kid. It's also all baby-themed, so it'll more easily slip under the radar of a non-numismatic person who might be skeptical of a collector-oriented set. In other words, we're not the target audience.
