whats best way to handle boxes once we get sets are they in another box inside shipping container or not open boxes at all just so they can be graded? :?:

Do not open the mint box... In order to get "first strike" you have to send in the unopened box.. Read the grading sites for rules.

First mint buy for me for a set like this. Will each of the 5 be boxed separately or is the mint box going to contain all 5 sets?

From my limited experience they will all be shipped together (as pictured) in the decorative box.

Hi everyone,I'm new to these sets. Will they be five separate sets with display boxes, or one box with all the coins in one box? Also will all these coins be considered first strike? Would you recommend sending out to be graded? Thanks for the help.

My guess is if you ordered 5 you'll get 5 boxes inside of the mint box. Which is why I ordered 3, then 2 for myself. That way i can send in the 2 to be graded. Hopefully the mint doesn't send my 2 orders as 1

Each set has case with 5 coins in it so you will get 5 cases. You will only get 1 box from the U.S Mint tho.

They wont get the first strike grade unless you don't open the U.S mint box. I don't reccomend grading them.

The only way you will profit from the grading, is IF you get one set or more to grade a 70, which is unlikely, but if these sets start selling for $1,000, they should easily pull in 2 or 3,000 in a 70 grade.

My plan is to unload my sets, while all of the "bigshots" have their sets out being graded, then buy more silver and gold with the profits.
