It all depends on demand. Was the demand in 2020 as high as that in 2021? It may not be as it was in 2021 as in 2022. Remember, there were two types of reverses, also, demand for silver in 2021 was high and it may not be the case in 2022. Also, hopefully, the Mint will have corrected the problems encountered in ordering 2021 coins. Fingers crossed.

That’s a fact, Sir Kaiser. Trying to order one of those 2022 Congratulations Set at launch time on April 14th will be extremely difficult, not to mention it is being released simultaneously with the 2022-W ASE Proof. At this time, the Mint has only set the rescheduled date for the releases; the prices, product limits and household order limits are TBD. The 2021 Congratulations Set was the last Set with the old reverse design of 1986 (Type 1) and the 2022 Congratulations Set will be the first Set with the new reverse design of 2021 (Type 2). Therefore, the 2022 Set will be most highly sought after just like the 2021 Set was. And yes, the “Big 18”, dealers, clubs and flippers will be out in force. They stand to make a killing on these sets: case in point, last year’s 2021 Set originally was sold for $75 by the Mint and now a couple of online dealers are selling the ungraded Set OGP/COA for $275 and the graded Set PR-70 for $425. Such a deal…
Congratulations in advance, to any of us (little people) who are lucky enough to score the Congratulations Set on release day.
