If they offered the following product: an annual mint set that included all the uncirculated coins, the proofs, and only the silver proofs of the dime, quarters, and half dollar, in cellophane wrappers (no more having to crack proof sets) for us album collectors.

I'd probably bite ! .....
If it was configured (priced) where they'd make a HUGE premium on us....(like the secondary market folks do).....then I bet they would do it.....or have already thought about it ! ....

That would be nice. Although I have had no problems "cracking" the proof sets the last ten years; they seem to come apart with minimal effort.

The advantages to your plan are convenience (no longer having to worry about duplicates between the clad and silver proof sets) and waste reduction (the plastic lenses contain more material than the cellophane wrappers).

As my signature says, "You can't do that, it makes too much sense!"
