Quote:Another thing I learned is they will defend their pricing at any cost of integrity. I noticed that the American Innovation Reverse Proof coins are now available as a bundle at a slightly reduced price. The Pennsylvania and Delaware coins were $9.95 and Georgia and New Jersey $9.95. However I bought the Jersey and Georgia coins two months back when they were $11.50. When I asked why to US Mint, I was told that they have the discretion to lower or raise prices at will. I agree with your sentiments, but I don't see anywhere that they changed the price of individual Innovation RP dollars. The Georgia and New Jersey RP's were $11.50 each from their release dates. The Pennsylvania and Delaware RP's are still $9.95 each. I looked, but can't find a RP bundle. Please provide a link if there is one. I do see a bundle for the 2018 introduction proof and the four 2019 proofs. That's kind of a hose job for those who buy early. You should get a discount for buying early, not late.

The bundle is priced the same as if purchased separately. It's $42.90.
The first two coins are $9.95 each, and the other two are $11.50 each. $19.90 + $23 = $42.90.

Hello I just received a response from the Mint: Hello John: I am replying on behalf of Director Ryder, who is currently out of the office. I thank you for being a Mint customer, and I am very happy to hear that your grandson is interested in numismatics. Thank you for your interest in the 2020 Native American Coin and Currency Set product. Unfortunately, because of impacts to Mint production due to COVID-19, we will not be selling the 2020 Native American Coin and Currency Set. I encourage you to visit https://catalog.usmint.gov/ and browse the many products we are offering for sale.

 to the CCF, @jad1175! Quote: Unfortunately, because of impacts to Mint production due to COVID-19, we will not be selling the 2020 Native American Coin and Currency Set. That's disappointing, although not surprising. Granted, I wasn't going to pay $34.50 for this set anyway, but hopefully they'll release another set in 2021 at a reasonable price.

Ah, man. Not the answer I was hoping for but it is what it is. Thanks for chasing this one down, John!

The Sacagawea design has been an abject failure since Day-1. Yet 20 years later they are still being produced. Cash cow ? Political correctness ? I don't know. For sale at premium to collectors ? Yep.

The only failure is our unwillingness to terminate issue of the one dollar note. Get rid of that old rag and the baby dollars will fly out of the vaults.  If you do not like them, do not buy them. Someone is buying them or else they would quit making them. For what it is worth, I do enjoy them being part of the annual sets.

The obverse depicts an American and former slave who played a significant roll in American history. I especially like that the reverse is new each year.
