<p>[QUOTE="krispy, post: 1461941, member: 19065"]They cannot simply make more... they can only take orders for a set period of time which they have defined. Minting more beyond that period of time (period of demand) would SERIOUSLY undermine their credibility amongst collectors and that would impact the numismatic Eagle program as well as the Mint's profits. I believe the legal issue of only Minting coins in the year of date on the coin would come into play here too, so if someone tried to place an order of say 30 million sets of these coins, the Mint may not be able to mint that many in a year, nor have the resources, manpower and materials to deliver them all. If the Mint decided to honor a massive order, they may also offend the individual collectors who would again be shut out from ordering as the larger order would consume all available material, in such a far-fetched scenario.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
