<p>[QUOTE="krispy, post: 934306, member: 19065"]Certainly the change to cash-less transaction will come so long as such systems are maintained and in place. When? I don't know. It will not be all at once. The use of both cash and digital funds will continue for a long time, much like the coexistence of film and digital photography are currently playing out. Sure film still exists but the masses don't use it in the way they once did, but one-hour photo kiosks at drug stores still abound and you see and find for sale single use cameras with film in them plus a niche market for students, artists, etc. consumes film products. The Mint will try to maintain collectors and continue Minting only collectibles for a similar niche market after transactions are cashless. Most of us order from the Mint with credit cards already and Mike can do so getting points for the coins he buys from the Mint too. Bon Voyage![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
