On CCF they saying that if you do the math with the known order numbers, the mint should be into back up orders now...
Orders that will be filled when earlier orders have a problem(mulitple orders, bad credit card, etc.) |

It says
* One 2009-S Abraham Lincoln Commemorative Proof Silver Dollar (struck from 90% silver and 10% copper)
* Four 2009-S Lincoln Proof Cents (struck from 95% copper and 5% tin and zinc, like the original 1909 Lincoln Cents)
* A reproduced Abraham Lincoln photograph
* A reproduction of the Gettysburg Address in Lincoln’s handwriting
Would the US mint creat a modern rarity like this? I sure hope so... 50k of a commerative will draw some sick prices in the future...
There will be no presale from me as I wait to see... |

| ahh depends i guess. I think everyone here is more friendly:) There are a lot of knowledgeable numismatist over there, and a wealth of knowledge in the numismatic world. I havent posted over there like i used too. I think its b/c some of my fellow realcenters have had some problems with the some of the mods over there. They also dont accept coinflation which is a sponsor here. So I am not saying dont join but i like this one better |

| CC's can not have the same name associated with it even if the addresses are different. E-gift card would be the best bet. Since you can associate it with anyones name. |

| I have a very common name. Probably just as common as Smith. How do they resolve that? |

Those freaks at the Mint associate peoples names and area codes to an account.
Even if you're a different person, they won't believe you. |

Unfortunately, the United States Mint Web site did not perform as expected when the popular 2009 Lincoln Coin and Chronicles Set went on sale at noon Eastern Time on October 15. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and frustration many of you may have experienced while attempting to purchase this and other products using our online catalog.
We did not meet the standards of excellence we have set for serving our customers. You deserve a better online shopping experience, and we are committed to resolving these issues quickly and permanently.
Thank you for your patience and continued support

I got one (1) - only took me 20 min to start ordering it.  I started at 11 AM Central Time. It went slowly after that - like one step (page) per every 2 minutes, but it went! I think this order went faster than the LP2 cent sets - that seemed to take FOREVER online!  Either the Mint got their system down better, or I figured out how to order faster (key I think was to hit "Refresh" when pages seem to stick), or both. My kid is happy that we got our one set! Now I see the Mint is only taking "waiting list" orders in case some cancel. Sorry to see the set go so fast! Thanks all! |
