The United States Mint releases its 2026 Uncirculated Coin Set today at noon ET, giving collectors a rare opportunity to obtain dual-dated 1776 ~ 2026 Lincoln cents and the year\u2019s Semiquincentennial coinage in uncirculated quality.<\/p>\n

\"Coins
The 2026 Mint Set includes 10 uncirculated coins from Philadelphia on a blue card and 10 from Denver on a red card. Each coin is encapsulated for viewing from both sides.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Popularly known as the Mint Set, the $124.50 collection is one of only three U.S. Mint products containing a 2026 cent in any finish. It is the sole source for cents from the Philadelphia and Denver Mints.<\/p>\n

Early secondary-market results for the proof cent underscore the denomination\u2019s appeal. Examples removed from the recently released 1776 ~ 2026 Semiquincentennial Silver Proof Set have recently sold for as high as $140.<\/p>\n

Those prices apply to proof cents rather than the uncirculated examples in the Mint Set, but they reflect broader collector demand for the distinctive 2026 coinage. As CoinNews recently reported, the Silver Proof Set and several of its one-year-only issues are commanding exceptional secondary-market premiums.<\/p>\n

The sets are commanding premiums in the secondary market, where some sellers have also broken them up and offered the coins individually. The 2026 cent and several one-year Semiquincentennial issues have drawn particularly strong premiums ahead of the Mint Set release.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

20 Coins From Philadelphia and Denver<\/strong><\/p>\n

The 2026 Mint Set contains 20 uncirculated coins, with 10 struck at the Philadelphia Mint mounted on a blue presentation card and 10 from the Denver Mint displayed on a red card.<\/p>\n

\n

“U.S. Mint uncirculated coins are struck on special presses using greater force than what is used for circulating coins, producing a sharp, intricately detailed image,” the Mint explains.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Included are Philadelphia- and Denver-struck examples of the:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • 2026 Native American dollar honoring Polly Cooper<\/li>\n
  • 1776 ~ 2026 Enduring Liberty half dollar<\/li>\n
  • 1776 ~ 2026 Gettysburg Address quarter<\/li>\n
  • 1776 ~ 2026 U.S. Constitution quarter<\/li>\n
  • 1776 ~ 2026 Declaration of Independence quarter<\/li>\n
  • 1776 ~ 2026 Revolutionary War quarter<\/li>\n
  • 1776 ~ 2026 Mayflower Compact quarter<\/li>\n
  • 1776 ~ 2026 Emerging Liberty dime<\/li>\n
  • 1776 ~ 2026 Jefferson nickel<\/li>\n
  • 1776 ~ 2026 Lincoln cent<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    The dime, five quarters, half dollar and Native American dollar feature one-year-only designs tied to America\u2019s 250th anniversary.<\/p>\n

    The Enduring Liberty half dollar replaces President John F. Kennedy and the presidential coat of arms with Statue of Liberty-themed designs. It is the first coin in the series without Kennedy\u2019s portrait since his likeness was introduced in 1964.<\/p>\n

    The Emerging Liberty dime replaces Franklin D. Roosevelt\u2019s portrait for one year, returning Liberty to the coin\u2019s obverse for the first time since the Mercury dime ended in 1945.<\/p>\n

    The five quarters honor the Mayflower Compact, Revolutionary War, Declaration of Independence, U.S. Constitution and Gettysburg Address. The Native American dollar\u2019s reverse portrays Polly Cooper sharing the Oneidas\u2019 gift of corn with Gen. George Washington, representing the generosity, courage and sacrifice of the Oneida during the American Revolutionary War.<\/p>\n

    All coins in the set except the Native American dollar carry the dual date 1776 ~ 2026. The dollar marks the Semiquincentennial through its anniversary-themed reverse.<\/p>\n

    Only Three U.S. Mint Products Include a 2026 Cent<\/strong><\/p>\n

    The Mint ended cent production for circulation in 2025, meaning no 2026 pennies are being struck for everyday commerce. The denomination appears only in the recently released 2026 Silver Proof Set, the upcoming standard Proof Set and the 2026 Mint Set. The two proof sets contain proof cents from the San Francisco Mint, while the Mint Set offers the only uncirculated examples, with cents from both Philadelphia and Denver.<\/p>\n

    Price Increase to $124.50<\/strong><\/p>\n

    The 2026 Mint Set is priced at $124.50, nearly four times the $33.25 introductory price of the 2025 edition. Earlier increases were far more gradual. The 2021 set debuted at $21.95, followed by successive adjustments that brought the price to $33.25 last year.<\/p>\n

    Despite the substantial increase, demand will be strong due to the exclusive uncirculated cents, the broad lineup of one-year-only anniversary designs and the opportunity to obtain every 2026 denomination from both Philadelphia and Denver in a single product.<\/p>\n

    Ordering and Limits<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Orders may be placed through the Mint\u2019s online catalog beginning June 30 at noon ET. The set has a product limit of 300,000 and an initial household order limit of 10.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
