So torn right now... I have the proof sets for the American Innovation Dollars. But... now that reverse proofs are in a set and not individual... should I continue my regular proof sets? Or switch to the reverse proof? |

Collect both. I for one am glad they they turned the RP into a set. Big waste of packaging for just one coin IMO. Especially considering it's no bigger than a quarter.

Just looked it up on the mints site to see if they had a price yet and gotta admit I like it even more now. I think the black background will really make the coins "pop". Plus the $28 price is less than I was expecting. A win-win.

Continue the regular proof and add the reverse proof so you have both. This is my plan now. Maybe.  Wait a few years and maybe the previous singles will be available at bargain prices.  |

I have been debating to start collecting the reverse proofs. I didn't like they were not in a set. Now, I will probably get the previous RP and the current. I noticed on the Mint site; I am able to purchase the 2019 and 2020 RP from them.
I noticed there is a 50K product and mintage limit. How fast does anyone think they will sell?

A lot of people liken these to game tokens. Maybe the change to a RP set will garner a bit more interest but not enough to sell out. I mean look at this thread. There's only three of us that are really looking fwd to this lol!

I just have U.S. Mint fatigue after all the ASE, Morgan, annual releases and price hikes this year so don't really feel much like commenting. However, I'll be getting/continuing RP via the 4-coin set. I didn't do the regular proof sets but might do that since it seems that all the previous proof sets are still available for purchase via the US Mint site. IIRC there is a topic with a member here that collects PDSS of these coins and has them nicely displayed in a CAPS (I think) album. I'll have to dig it up. |

Got order confirmation from regular proof enrollment. Still thinking I will add the reverse proof set this year. |

I actually think the reverse proof will sell out now They only sold 3800 proof sets today after 15 minutes, and 94% of stock remained at that point. They didn't even turn on the website anti-dos/bot protection today. I will be surprised if the other rp set is significantly more popular. I'm not collecting this series, but I liked one of the four coins, so I bought it.
