Lincoln Coin and Chronicles Set Sold Out
It took longer than many collectors expected, but the Lincoln Coin and Chronicles Set sold out prior to 6:00 p.m. Eastern Time on Friday, Oct. 16.
However, THERE IS STILL A CHANCE TO PLACE ORDERS. The US Mint continues to keep the sets open for those who would like to be added to a waiting list. The Mint states at its online store:
Waiting List Notice: The number of orders we have taken meets the maximum limit for the United States Mint Lincoln Coin and Chronicles Set. You may still place an order for this product, which will go on a waiting list. If a product becomes available due to an order cancellation, we will fulfill orders from the waiting list on a first-in, first-served basis. We cannot provide information about your position on the waiting list.
When we place your order on the waiting list, we will send you an order receipt. This is not a guarantee that you will receive your order. If we are not able to fulfill part or all of your order, you will receive a cancellation or sold-out notification. If you paid by check, you will receive a refund.
CoinNews has tested this statement in the past. It is indeed possible to receive a product after being placed on a waiting list. But those who are interested should rush to sign up...
