When I ordered my Lincoln Comm. Proof, I decided to pick up at 2008 Uncirculated set for $22.95 and now they are sold out. I just saw one close on ebay for $51.00. Isn't that a bit unusual for a sold out product to more than double in less than a month? I am tempted to sell mine and then buy one when they get back down to $25.00.

As of Feb 22, total sales had been 745,464 so if they are sold out now the number cannot be much higher. I have an extra one

No what is unusual is if it stays double or more. Usually they jump up and then shortly come sliding back down.

The 2008 mint set has the lowest set mintage in the past 45 years. (Not including 82 and 83)

There is a site I get a lot of emails from that indicate the most current mint figures. I believe the mint releases figures relatively regularly. Try searching mint news blog on yahoo.

I have a subscription to Numismatic News and they have a weekly column called Mint Statistics. However, you can also access this info at Numismaster
