<p>[QUOTE="treehugger, post: 1462109, member: 28451"]It seems there are different interpretations to what exactly is "mint to demand". Some seem to think it means to mint only the number of sets that are ordered. This creates an issue when returns are considered, as mentioned above. I believe a better meaning of "mint to demand" is to ensure everyone who orders a set, within the expressed time period, gets a set. In other words, they will mint as least as many as there are orders, but can issue as many as they would like. The key, I believe, is they must at least satisfy the demand.</p><p><br /></p><p>The sales figures indicated are meant to be just that; the amount of sets sold. The mintage figures could easily be a higher number. Another thought is this: is there anything to prevent the Mint from extending the order period? My feeling is although we might know in early July how many sets have been sold, we will not know have many actually will be minted. Am I being delusional?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
