I&#039;ve read all the posting over the last couple of months by mostly dissappointed collectors that were badly treated by a poorly managed U.S. Mint. Yes I am one of those unhappy collectors! Ther are so many ways the mint could have helped us, but instead catered to dealers and speculators instead. Well you all have hashed that out very well. Now you need to log on to the mint site,go to their pressroom and follow the legislative link. There you will find the presidential $1 coin act of 2005 (public law 109-145). Under section 103 you will note, among other things, that the number of coins was to be set at any number the secretary deemed &quot;appropriate&quot;; and all other methods of distribution are also left to the mint&#039;s discretion! (5 per household &amp;etc. to ad naseum!) Sooo, nobody&#039;s fault but good old mint! I agree with those of you who say your&#039;e not buying at the inflated prices, same here! Matter of fact having been burnt by the mint also on the Franklins,(won&#039; buy till their down to issue!) I have been strongly thinking on total BOYCOTT of all mint products...The are just not collector friendly! And one more link to go to and vent your <a href="mailto:..www@ccac.gov">frustrations,..www@ccac.gov</a>. This is the citizens coinage advisory committee.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
