The release of the 2014 United States Mint Limited Edition Silver Proof Set was delayed because of packaging improvements the bureau made based on returns for the 2013 set. The process took longer than expected, and the sets could not be assembled until March. The coins were all produced in 2014.

  1. 2014 Limited Edition Mint Set are leftover coins in poorly designed case. Of the 8 coins expect at least 2-3 coins in poor shape.
