Poll Question
Who's getting the 2024 Limited Edition Silver Proof Set? It's available on 11/05/2024 for $255. My opinion, $255 is a pretty steep price for the silver you get on this one. All coins are available in other products for cheaper. If the packaging is worth it to you, then good on ya. Obviously I'm a "nope" but I know there are others here that add them annually. Thoughts please! As I always say, collect what you like. This is only my opinion. FWIW I do have a few of these sets from years past but had to draw the line when prices started to soar. Last one I bought was the 2017 LESPS when it was my last option to get an S Proof ASE direct from the mint. And the sets were only $140 back then.

Last year was my breaking point for buying this set from the Mint. Hoping in a few years down the road to pick-up for less. But never can tell what the future holds.

I tried to capitalize LESPS in your title, but it did not take. John1

I guess the spacing makes the difference. John1

This year the US mint was a dud for me. Prices went up too much, I passed on most of the offerings I got prior.

I've been reducing my spend with the US Mint drastically over the past few years, coincidentally to the price increases. 2019 was my biggest US Mint spend year by far due to the Apollo releases and I have pared it down significantly since.

Quote: Yeah I'll probably go ahead and get it Nice collection. If you're interested in getting some of the earlier sets, PM me. Like @jbuck, I don't usually let things go once they're in my clutches but since you are clearly a collector, I'd make an exception.
