[QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 1916149, member: 15929"]In 2008, the US Mint "dropped" a lot of really neat programs in an attempt to minimize the amount of products sold. In 2011, they added more baloney to their mix and their pretty much back to where they were in 2008 minus the State Quarter Spoons. I do not want collectors to be forced into "dropping" their current collections in lieu of starting "your" new collections. The Numismatic Versions of the current "bullion" offerings are quite popular and collected and while you may "think" that folks would want to stop collecting them, I know of a lot of "Proof" Eagle Collectors that might disagree with your assessment. You see, the "Proof" versions of these coins fall under the "numismatic versions". It appears that you and VCC do not have a firm grasp about exactly what you want changed. You just want to change it. And keep in mind, this is only my opinion but I seriously doubt that's it ONLY my opinion.[/QUOTE]
