<p>[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 3659869, member: 112"]One has to always remember than when it comes to coins toning the specific environmental conditions, and storage methods, often have more to do with it than the any mint packaging does. Can mint packaging contribute to toning ? Sometimes, you bet ! Other times, no it doesn't. And sometimes collectors fall down on their knees and give thanks for the mint packaging - the '58 Mint Sets for example - they have produced some of the most beautiful coins any of us has ever seen ! But not all of them, some of the same sets have been some of the ugliest coins any of us has ever seen. And that's my point - both had the same mint packaging, but very different results. Due of course to conditions and storage methods varying between collectors.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>It depends on the coins but I agree to a degree.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Some do just that and some don't ever, again it depends on the coins. </p><p><br /></p><p>But the general tone of your comments is accurate.

But the general tone of your comments is accurate. The mint cares more about numbers than they do quality as a general rule.[/QUOTE]
