Allegory Set

It's a good idea had they done it in the first place. It's a big **This is a family friendly forum. Keep it that way. You've been warned** to do it now and declare a limited 1200 sets worldwide.

I feel badly for anyone who bought the three coins separately but I'd say they have a snowball chance in Havana of getting the box now.

The mint clearly have at least 1200 of each of the three coins left. If they give previous buyers a box, they no longer have 1200 sets to sell as part of the new offering. Thus they don't solve the problem of getting rid of the left over coins.

That aside, this is a very troubling direction for RCM marketing to take. What's next? Undermining the value of a customers collection is IMO about the worst tactic they could employ. Yet here we are.

I've been getting more and more turned off but the hobby as a result of the Mint's actions recently and this latest maneuver might just be enough to push me away entirely.

Just imaging if they come out with an Eagles set w/ box or a Maple canopy set w/ box; both of which should have had a box from the beginning.

They'll be rioting in the streets.

Don't get me started about the bald eagles. If they are indeed sold out, I hope I don't find a complete set in a nice box.

I don't think my rep care how I feel, he just want my money.

It is sad that our mint is following the footstep of the Perth Mint. Remember the Perth Mint issued a "2012 High Relief Silver Proof Four-Coin Collection" in the 4th quarter of 2012, that angered a lot of collectors. Granted that Perth Mint actually minted more coins to create that set (because that set was release before they refined their definition of mintage), while RCM just repackage the remaning stock without increasing the actual mintage, but the effect is similar.

I agree with Northencoins here.
In this case will be right for RCM to send a box to customers, who bought all 3 coins from mint prior this day only.

But, although this politics of re-packaging is "fishi", the Mint, as any other manufacturer has full right to pack their products as and whenever it wishes to do it.
Re-packaging it not the same as "re-mint".

May be....but I want to believe, that they know how to manage with the replacements (for all their products), and have a spare box.

Or:
take it as possible idea - if they will refuse to send just a box, ask to replace all 3 coins for the set.

So maybe the single gold coins that were sold first will go up in value now ...I mean you wont beable to get them with the CoA in the clam shells and the outer black sleeve with the info on it , not that the clams shells are hard to get but the single CoAs will be and the sleeves with the date/info etc .. I guess it depends on how they put the set together.. maybe you get all of that stuff with them and you put them in the "box" time will tell I guess.
