2012 United States Mint Set – Lowest Modern Mintage Mint Set

The 2012 United States Mint Set is one of the most significant modern issues due to its exceptionally low mintage. Featuring standard uncirculated business-strike coins from the Philadelphia and Denver Mints, this set continues the America the Beautiful Quarters Program with ten quarters—five from each mint—honoring: El Yunque (PR), Chaco Culture (NM), Acadia (ME), Hawaiʻi Volcanoes (HI), and Denali (AK). According to the official Red Book, the 2012 Mint Set had a remarkably low production of only 392,224 sets, making it the rarest Mint Set of the modern era.

The set also includes four Presidential Dollars featuring: Chester Arthur, Grover Cleveland (First Term), Benjamin Harrison, and Grover Cleveland (Second Term). The 2012 Native American Dollar features the “Trade Routes – Mohawk Ironworkers” reverse. Rounding out the denominations are uncirculated Lincoln Cents, Jefferson Nickels, Roosevelt Dimes, Washington Quarters, and 2012 Kennedy Half Dollars. All coins are housed in sturdy folder-style Original Government Packaging (OGP), with protective cellophane ensuring bright luster, clean strikes, and clear mintmarks.

The 2012 Mint Set is widely considered a must-have for collectors due to its scarcity, strong multi-series representation, and position within the America the Beautiful Quarters and Presidential Dollar Programs. Its extremely low mintage has kept demand high, making it one of the most desirable Mint Sets of the last several decades.
