This article presents photos of a United States Mint 225th anniversary product, the 2017-S Enhanced Uncirculated Coin Set.
Released Tuesday, Aug. 1, the San Francisco Mint-produced product includes 10 clad coins that feature enhanced uncirculated finishes. Priced at $29.95, the set’s status turned to unavailable within minutes of launching. However, the U.S. Mint reopened sales the morning of Aug. 3 after reconciling orders and cancellations. No more than 225,000 sets will be sold.
Included within them are the year’s major coins from the cent to the dollar. They are protected by two lenses, accompanied by a card that includes a U.S. Mint Certificate of Authenticity and coin specifications, and packaged in a black matte box.
Here are four photos showing both sides of the two lenses and their enhanced uncirculated coins:
The five quarters and dollar bear one-year-only reverse designs. The dollar’s obverse or heads side features the traditional "Sacagawea" design. The reverse features a likeness of Sequoyah writing "Sequoyah from Cherokee Nation" in syllabary. Here are two photos of a set’s dollar:

Here are some photos showing how they look in enhanced uncirculated:

yeah I seen that, I ordered a bunch more
It is unavailable at August 14 . Again eBay seller start to rise the price now. The price value at $69
the lowest mintage cent in this set will have this set at 100 plus in one year
How many sets do you want at 20 bucks a pop? Go to any coin show and you’ll have a good chance of finding some. Just was at a coin show and a dealer had about 10 and was selling them for $20. Maybe in another 4 years they’ll be $10?
Looking at the prices on ebay it is hard to believe how cheaply the SP70 sets are selling for. $275 for a graded set of SP70. It would cost me $262 to have ten coins graded when you count purchasing the set, grading fees,invoice fee, shipping fee, ebay fee. I added very carefully and came up with a solid $26 as the cost for me. Here’s the thing though: If I sent 10 coins in they probably are not ALL going to be perfect 70’s! So I may save $13 but most likely I won’t since I won’t get perfect… Read more »
why grade us*mint sets , unless you want all coins you own graded, or flip. the mint state & proof sets from 1950 to 2000, those are the sets to grade now, & quite a few are cheaper than oridgeinal mint prices right now, like $5 & $8, look at a price guide for each coin in set, from grades 65 to 70, & if you see a cherry or three in the set, get them graded. a lot of those cherry coins go for a god peace of change in 68,69,70. new mint sets from our u*s mint*, just… Read more »
As of tonight, Aug. 15, 2017 at 09:35 EST, these coins are still available.
I agree with Coinstar.
In my opinion, these will increase in value by next year
coin star & chris williams – the cent you are talking about is the lowest mintage zinc cent cents 1982, the lowest mintage copper cent, at 784,614 mintage. is 2009 p & d copper satin finish, from the 2009 mint state set, is the lowest copper cent *, cents the 1909 s vdb Lincoln*copper cent. that y* i* said the nickel not to far back. maybe i* sea not the same as u’,s . this should go up, but u don’t have to grade 1 or all rightaway. the first strike is bs right now acording t\o our *us*mint*.
Thank you for that info, Joe.
