Any official word on the number of 2007 Legacy sets that were actually sold by the U. S. Mint?? One guy one E bay claims that only 27K sets were actually sold by the U. S. Mint and the rest were destroyed, not being to sell the remaining ones in 2008 by Congressional legislation because of one of the Silver Dollar proofs was discontinued and not being able to be sold in 2008. That tells me that they were released and shipped in December 07 only. E bay prices for the set are now $200 to $300 for the 07 set already. Is this going to happen with the 08 Legacy set also being the Bald Eagle is going to get the axe for 2008??

I was happy to pay the 30.05, It’s a nice looking set. And with only a little over 27,000 issued,the first Presidential set and maybe the last Sacagawea issued I think it will soon be sought after.

Your 2007 Legacy Coin Set page is misleading. Can you say shipping and handling – if purchase separately. Do the math. Oh, and the commemorative dollars are both proof.
