Have all outstanding orders been received yet? I was wondering if those who have been waiting since Dec have been satisfied now and if the US Mint has fulfilled all orders now. The set itself still shows as "out of stock" although the weekly sales report has it reported with 50k out of 50k sets sold.

We are back to the "remind me" button now. It appears that either some potential buyers cancelled their orders or that their credit card information could not be verified - similarly to the Baseball HOF coins. I assume a limited number of sets will be made available again and shortly. But don't hold your breath on the "remind me" button actually working... It's the US Mint after all! :)

Ordered mine on 12/13/2014 and received them today. I was very surprised this morning when I got the mail, I thought that I would have to buy it from e-bay. Not happy having to buy another mint product to keep that set going. Is the mint going to keep making the enhanced $1 or is this a one time deal. Not into currency, is this bill special?

I'm going to save my dollar bills, not really sure why, I guess just to keep the set complete.

Prices won't go north for quite some time - there are two buy-it-now auctions for $40 or $44.75/set with a total of 199 sets available: http://www.ebay.com/itm/231489682778 ($40) http://www.ebay.com/itm/361224868808 ($44.75) Still, prices have been steady above $40 for quite some time despite the market being flooded with the latest shipments from the US Mint. Let's hope they will declare it as sold out pretty soon.

This set is still going strong - the 99 $40 a set auction I posted above were sold in 4 days. According to my calculations, a total of 8.5k sets in OGP (excluding graded coins) have been sold on ebay thus far. There are still maybe 20-30k sets out there which may enter the market sooner or later (the rest are with true collectors who will not part with their set(s)), but at the current pace of approx. 1000 sets being sold on ebay per month (I am keeping track) we could see supply being squeezed by demand in a year or two... I doubt this set will ever sell for $100, but $60-80 maybe one day. And even at that price it is affordable to most (unlike the gold Baseball HOF coins). I also don't think prices will go down to less than $30 - there is simply too much demand and the mintage of 50k is too low for that to happen.

Should I sell some of my set to recoup the initial capital outlay or just hold on tight? Decision, decision...
