For each of these coins, there are production limits which will likely impact the availability of these sets in the near future, particularly the Dollar and Half Dollar. The Dollar has a production limit of 400,000 while the Half Dollar is limited to 750,000 pieces. The $5 gold coin is limited to 50,000.

The good news for collectors is that all three of these sets are being sold without a household limit so you can buy as many as you want for your collection and gifts to others. At the time of this post, all three of these coin & emblem prints sets still showed as available on the Mint’s site.
