[QUOTE="Irish2Ice, post: 1135235, member: 28761"]The answer gets a lot more complicated than Legally Required. Yes, that's the simple dirty answer, but many things were/are botched in this process. I'm a little more passionate about this process than most for personal reasons, but I'm also not going to write a dissertation on a COIN forum. My main argument has more to do with the definition of BULLION vs Numismatics. When the Mint produces a "product" intended for numismatists AND/OR bullion investment FOR the American PEOPLE, the cost should not be MULTIPLE times it's bullion value by the time it gets to those PEOPLE. There ARE legal ways to make this better TODAY. The problems are laziness, government crap politics (that go beyond what you mentioned) and greed. Lastly, I can LEGALLY have a "relationship" with another mans wife, but that doesn't make it right does it? The powers that be can CHOOSE not to screw the numismatist OR the American people![/QUOTE]
