I am still waiting on a back ordered 2 coin bronze set of Jackie and JFK!! I wonder if there is a product mintage limit, if so, be quick, it may be some time before they fill any back orders if they even accept back orders!

I mentioned this in another thread, but buyers of this year's First Spouse Bronze Medal Set should check their Bess Truman medals for damage. My two sets yielded Bess with deep gouges across her face:

Those Trumans pictured are badly produced medals. There's no reason for you not to return the sets for replacement for better sets of medals. Unfortunately, the small medals are carelessly made at the Mint. It's very common to have scratched, dinged or otherwise substandard quality medals sent to customers. Every year since 2010, I order half dozen sets, mix and match to try to come up with three quality sets, there's always at least one dinged and/or badly scratched medal in each set. This year I ordered 10 and yielded 9 near perfect sets, so the quality is out there. Again, there's no good reason to keep badly made medals, IMO.
