I actually like it, but clearly this 2018 dated coin was minted in 2019 (I can’t imagine it’s been in storage for 8-9 months awaiting packaging material from the printer).

Isn’t the mint not allowed to put non-current dates on coins? (Yes, I know, the ’65 Coinage Act allowed ’64 and ’65 coins later minting during that specific “coin emergency”).

The Mint sold such tacky, kitsch trinkets in the 1990s & wound up having their first sale in Mint history to get rid of all that crap! And at $24.95 a piece, you can get a sterling silver one by Gorham for $50. lol

Might also mean the Unc $5 will end at 11,000 plus. Still prefer the Proof even thou the Unc will likely be much more expensive in the future.
