I was just browsing The United States Mint website and saw that the 2011 Presidential Proof Set packaging looks different than the first 4 years of this series.

The packaging for my 2007, 2008, 2009, and 2010 proof sets depict the signing of Declaration of Independence. The 2011 set at their site is completely different and the plastic slab holders' paper insert is different as well.

Is this standard for the US Mint to change packaging graphics or is this possibly a somewhat different set from what I have been collecting?

Any insight wound be greatly appreciated.

Simply put, it is not unusual for them to change packaging details and this is the same set that you have been collecting.

Maybe they are packageing them better now so that they won't tone like many of the modern proof sets have been doing. Just a hypothesis

I'm pretty sure the sets will always tone... That is till they change the manner of storage...
