They still haven't cancelled my order. Maybe they only cancelled people's orders that were made over a certain limit, or only allow orders from people who have already ordered the proof set? So will the TPGs have a new label for the "penny" only sealed first strike box? :)

How about "Penny purchased for one cent"?

My question is why the mint created a separate product code and allowed it to be purchased for a cent. Accounted as a bonus on the confirmed order. No page set up and probably not intended to be seen publicly. Maybe some bad programming, some accounting tactic, or maybe a backdoor for the big guys that we usually don't get to see.

I say don't overthink it. It was simply a website error. The number of W proof cents will equal the number of regular proof sets sold.

What a fiasco! I was under a rock the past day and completely missed this bit of excitement.

Maybe it was a press-generation scheme.

No such thing as bad press, right?

It's difficult to see the "Premium" penny/cent with the large bar code and other printing on the Littleton-like bag it comes packaged in.
