2009 Lincoln Proof Set - in stock and reserved a month early?

[kbsig106]

I was checking my account after I saw a US Mint hold on my CC - I found that my five 2009 Lincoln 4 Coin Proof sets are "In Stock and Reserved".

 

 

I seem to recall these were not due until 11/30 - interesting to see how this plays out next week.

 

Can any one check their order?

 

Thanks!

Same with me. 5 sets reserved... 11/30

Maybe they're going to release them early - I would see no reason to run my CC a month before the scheduled release.

I've found sometimes they charge up to 2 wks b4 they ship...other times they charge a few days b4

mine was shipped yesterday, 10/30/09 and is in transit.

I got my shipping con. yesterday as well.

 

 

and I hope the Mint did a decent job this time with the coins and placement.

Mine don't look too bad. There is still the issue of lint inside the airtites. Colored lint also. You would think that they would be a little more effiecient when putting the coins in place. How hard could it be to have a can of air handy and airing off the coins and airtites before placing the coins inside. Now I have to do it.

I have little bits of lint in mine.From what I can tell,it looks like comes from the brown felt on the inside of the package. Seems the people who put these together do it all in the same place.
