<p>[QUOTE=&quot;iPen, post: 2365159, member: 69760&quot;]This is going a bit off on a tangent...</p><p><br /></p><p>I have an idea of how the US Mint can stimulate numismatic interest among current and prospective numismatists: CRH limited edition coins! The US Mint can issue a low mintage set of coins that can only be found randomly in bank rolls. Although intended for younger generations, it&#039;ll probably find its way to the older crowd, too (oh well <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />). This&#039;ll run nostalgic like the golden tickets in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. I believe that McDonald&#039;s increases their revenue by a substantial margin when running their Monopoly pay-to-play game, and this maybe similar to that.</p><p><br /></p><p>The one (major) caveat would be that banks would probably not enjoy the manual labor involved of trading cash for coins and the amount of returned coins for sorting. Though, it may be a way to get more customers in the door, so the US Mint can sell them on that lol. Bank employees may be involved in a scandal, too, somehow or other.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
