<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 6397256, member: 26302&quot;]Just scrolling around and I see South Korea puts out gold coins on differently colored cards. This got me thinking about a tremendous waste I see with modern collecting, the mint packaging many times tossed aside and wasted. I wonder if the mint should introduce different inserts into their packaging, changing them up throughout the year or randomly. Have them printed so people could not mix and match previous years, but maybe have 40% of the proof sets one background color, 50% another, and a third only 10% of the sets. For things like commemorative silver dollars do this on the inside packaging of the box.</p><p><br /></p><p>Yeah, I know gimmicky, but not really any more gimmicky than what TPGs are doing, like early release, colored insets, autographs, etc. At least this way the mint, and ultimately US taxpayers, would benefit instead of private corporations. Additionally, maybe less mint packaging would go to waste.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
