Are the coins easy to remove from the capsules?

Hmmm... I haven't tried myself but I took a look at one of my sets and they look like standard US Mint capsules which are pretty easy to pop open. The biggest challenge is removing the capsules from the flocked holders.

Anything is possible if you use the force.

Did you try the Force, TheForce? Or did you just force them? Of course.

If the force doesn't work try using a horse with force without remorse of course.

Those who underestimate The Force do so at their own peril.

I don't have the set, I was just contemplating whether or not I should get it. And the ease of opening them was a factor. I still think the set is over priced for 4 coins.

I do not think the price was bad, but it would have looked better with a lower mintage.
For what it is worth, I love my set and have no regrets.

For what it is worth, I love my set and have no regrets I love this set as well and should of had a much lower mintage. I think these will be around like the 1976 Silver 3 coin sets. There may be a demand increase if/when these are included as part of albums.

I agree. Having specific labeled slots for them in the albums will drive demand and and value upward.

Yes, the EU looks a little manufactured, for lack of a better description. But they had to do something. I would have liked to see a matte proof, like the 1998.
