Today at 12:00pm Eastern, the US Mint will release the eagerly awaited Lincoln Coin & Chronicles set. The set includes:
- One 2009 Abraham Lincoln Commemorative Proof Silver Dollar
- Four proof 95% copper cents featuring the four different 2009 reverse designs
- Reproduction photograph of Abraham Lincoln
- Reproduction of the Gettysburg Address in Lincoln’s handwriting
- Certificate of Authenticity
All in a leather-like tri-fold case with a slip cover. Production of the set is limited to 50,000 pieces, representing the last 50,000 Lincoln silver dollars out of the otherwise sold-out total production of 500,000. The price will be $55.95 and sales will be limited to one per household for the first 30 days of availability, though it seems unlikely this won’t sell out well before that point.
