<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TheMont, post: 2458592, member: 80121&quot;]Look what the mint made on the Winged Cap Liberty (Mercury) gold coin issued this year. I&#039;m going to ignore production costs, they exist for every coin made. The Mint charged $210 dollars for a 1/10 ounce gold coin. Gold was at approximately $1250 and ounce when they came out or melt for 1/10th was $125. That&#039;s $85 over melt, and they made 125,000 x $85= $10,625,000. Even subtracting production costs, that a pretty good profit. that&#039;s why the Mint is the only government agency that turns over millions of dollars to the Treasury every year. They are the only department of government that makes a profit.</p><p><br /></p><p>Life is rude. We all have to deal with it. Yes we do, but we don&#039;t have to add to it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for the info on the new Platnimum coin- 10,000 mintage= worth saving.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
