<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 6397787, member: 26302&quot;]The cost to the mint may be one to two cents due to less volume per color ordered. However, only 1% higher proof set sales would more than pay for that.</p><p><br /></p><p>I am trying to minimize packaging casually wasted by those who feel the need to submit coins to the TPG to create variations that are missing from the mint. The mint sells direct to the public, and they have a random chance of receiving different colored packaging of the coins. Let&#039;s make it 4 colors, 49% chance black, 40% chance of green, 10% chance of red, and 1% chance of gold. Now they have no need to buy from the large aftermarket players who have submitted coins to TPG for THEIR differentiate packaging, early release, different color label, MS70, autograph, etc. Don&#039;t worry, MCM would still have a market buying up and reselling red and gold packaged products for those who want &quot;the best&quot;, but now the TPG does not have to get paid, collectors have equal ability to get rarer packaging, and we save the environment on wasted packaging.</p><p><br /></p><p>Win, win, win all around to me except the TPGs get cut out of their current windfall. I am sure the TV promoters could sell these as easily as they sell the differentiated slabs.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
