[QUOTE="woodyhenderson, post: 1713774, member: 33122"]There is nothing wrong with the mint makeing coins as long as the coins sell for only the content cost of the metal used. Every coin we collect had to earn their cost by demand from the collectors that wanted them and that in its self drove up the price of the coin. The mint is playing the worth of the coins by adding the high cost right off the bat that looks to me like they want to set the prices of the coins worth and make a very healthy profit and they set the worth of the coins and not we as collectors. I liked it best when the collectors were in charge of the worth of a coin and not the goverment makeing a quick profit. Seems they have gotton greedy and made the little guy even smaller. While there are many coins many collectors will never get to buy because of the cost now even coins less than a year old get pushed out of their reach. One way to bring the mint in check would be for collectors to stop buying these overly priced coins .[/QUOTE]
