Does anyone know if a new storage box is going to to be available for the silver proof coin sets? I have sets fron 1999 and they are now changing the package at the the mint to include the Presidential dollar coins. From what I see this set will not fit in the old style box. Where can I obtain one? Thanks!

I received my silver proof sets and they seem to be the same size. There is just a third lens now. Maybe you are using a box that is sectioned so that only 2 lenses fit?

Best proof set storage box out there is a narrow shoe box- women's dress shoe boxes are great since those shoes are small. You never have to worry about the proof set lens size changing- they will all fit in there. They do not look as nice as the spiffy proof set boxes from the Mint but those are messed up now the lens size change. Of course, if you don't have a wife, daughter, or are not a woman, this may not be practical(or free) for you

If you are using the US Mint boxes, they now make a box that holds 3 lenses now.

Just use the box you have been using and keep the Pres's separate but make sure you keep the little paper connecting the two.
