Mine arrived the other day; just getting to it opening it today. It looks pretty good.
Regarding that 90k product limit thing, I saw the late-nite hucksters really hyping that angle up on Saturday night (apparently History Channel now gives them a spot at 2AM). "By far the lowest mintage of W Uncirculated..." etc. I haven't kept track of final mintages since 2017, but 90k is definitely down from the heydey of 2007 where 621k+ were sold. That number has steadily decreased year by year:
W Uncirculated procuction numbers, rounded to nearest 1k:
2006: 468k (first year of Uncirculated ASEs)
2007: 621k
2008: 534k
2009: (none minted)
2010: (none minted)
2011: 410k (Also an S Uncirculated in 25th Anniversary set: 100k)
2012: 226k
2013: 222k
2014: 253k
2015: 224k
2016: 217k
2017: 177k
FWIW, the 2025 W Uncirculated are still available directly from the US Mint at this time.
