[QUOTE="asciibaron, post: 414081, member: 8566"]i think the writer is thinking he needs to be a completest. the mint is offering a variety of products that fit a variety of needs - from the investor to the special occasion gift buyer. i will buy a silver proof set when a family member or friend has a child. it doesn't cost a ton of money, but down the road it might be of some greater value. the mint does make a ton of crap - look at the lack of quality in the recent circulating products - ugly is too kind. i don't mind the staggering number of products, i just wish these products were all of a high quality and durable. how many of the state quarters look like garbage after only a few years in the hands of the populace? if it takes reducing the number of products to enhance the quality, so be it. in the end, i think the mint is trying to cover a large market of potential buyers and the budget required to be a completest just shows the variety that they are producing. does the high number of products correlate to the reduced number of contract mint work? -Steve[/QUOTE]
