What is also now confirmed is that UNC is a 4 coin set, compared to the First strike that was a 3 coin set in UNC

Dheer, it was stated in the booking notice itelf that the unc set will have all four coins.

I received my Dr. Syama Prasad Proof and UNC sets.

[dheer]

Wow ... did you book only this sets or other sets as well ...
looks like its going to be a long wait for me ... havent received anything yet 

[dheer]

Did anyone get the Shastri re-strikes ...

[kansal888]

I received my Tukaram Proof (re-struck) few days back. I got my SP Mookerjee Proof set today

Unfortunately, I am yet to receive Shastri proof set till now....

Probably it may have something to do with the fact that I did not booked it

Don't worry, Sanjayji. You are such a big shot that in this governments regime, you will get it even if you have not booked it......

Thanks Sanjayji ... but I was asking it for ordinary mortals ... who book online and don't run the mint 
I had book all the 3 online, and haven't got anything yet ... maybe the mint is saving on postage and will ship only with Shastri set is also ready

I received my Shastri Sets just 15 minutes back. But I have not received the Mookerjee and Tukaram sets till now.

As opposed to Mumbai Mint reminted sets, the packing for the Kolkata reminted sets is exactly the same, except that this time, the paper is Glazed finished as compared to Matt finish in the original sets. Also, the colour ORANGE is little darker this time. But if you accidentally mix up the two sets, it will be difficult to tell as to which one is the original and which one is the reminted.

In case of Mumbai sets, it is clearly mentioned that the set has been reminted in year 201X.

Got my Shastri sets too. No sign of Mookerjee and Tukaram sets ...

I received 'Sant Tukaram'-proof set on 15th March 2014 from Kolkata Mint. The packaging quality is so poor that the coins placed are off-centred in cover. Not worth spending so much for such quality....

[Vivek]

Still waiting I have not yet received both Shastri and Tukaram

I have quite a few sets that were from Mumbai & Kolkata mints that had coins displaced ... the just poor quality of Glue they use, gently push the coins back in place using a letter opener or knife ... and press the envelope that should do the trick ... If the coins have Glue on them ... then its advisable to remove then wipe it off ... better visit the cleaning board before you attempt anything like that

[coINz]

Yeah. Thanx for the advice. I will try to do that.

I just tried to complain about poor packaging of my Proof set online to Kolkata Mint. However, it could not be registered as reply indicated 'Your address exceeds 100 character'  which I could not alter,system-generated. . A novel way to avaoid NEGATIVE feedback. Listen Kolkata Mint...

At last I received Sant Tukaram set...
But still waiting for Shamaprasad Mukharji and lal Bahaddur Shastri
