I will probably get this one to feed my Eisenhower obsession. I just wish it was being released the day before the March of Dimes set, not the day after, so I can combine shipping. There is no way that I am going to wait a day to get the MoD set.

Yeah.. that's a tough one, jbuck. Like you said, would have been better (for us) if they'd released it the day before MoD. I know I'll have a couple other purchases this year from the Mint after MoD, so I'll just bundle the Ike FDCC with one of those.

True. I can always add this one to my order later in the year. I am not expecting this one to sell out.

Considering that all 4 of the 2009 issues are still available, that's probably a safe bet.

Exactly!  I hope the Eisenhower C&C is a reality. I want to wait and order these related products with it.

Curious. So, why did you originally get 15? Were they used as gifts?

I ask myself that question frequently....  I was into supplementing my income (just retired at 58) and cleaned up on the 2006 20th Annie ASE sets (bought 30 sets and got lots of 70's), doing great on resales of other special issue Mint products (I sent them all to be graded) and thought it a cheap product to get in on the ground floor with issue #1...oh well, not a big deal and glad I dropped the quantity rapidly It taught me a lesson in what Mint products to go after. I kinda made up for it in later years with the most recent being the 50 2014 SAC C&C sets I bought (30 graded)... Best score was the decision to buy 40 2008-W ASE's from the Mint and get them graded. 18 of those had the reverse of 2007 and the 12 70's sold from $600-800 each...
