<p>[QUOTE="jaceravone, post: 410738, member: 9474"]Elaine, you can order replacement boxes, sleeves, COAs and such from the mint at no charge..... as long as you placed the order with them. If you bought an item from a third party, the mint will not send you any replacements. I have done this many times over the years. The ones that I didn't buy from the mint, I had to find on ebay or somewhere else. I have received many replacement sleeves for my proof sets..... but they only carry them for so many years. For example, you may get lucky and get a sleeve for the 2004 proof set, but if you want one from 2000 they probably ran out of them a long time ago. I was told that the mint saves extra "parts" each year to these sets so they can replace the parts if requested. </p><p> </p><p>As far as the Prosperity set goes, I am just disappointed that they didn't limit the production. I would have bought one for sure if that were the case, but like Ken said, with the price of gold dropping, it is just not worth it. And since there is nothing special about these coins, even a low set production wont have an effect on the aftermarket price.... unless people just want the wood box the coins came in.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
