Though I also think the mint should have the authority on its own to issue commemoratives and not have to rely on Congress passing bills specifying which coins are minted when and at what limits. I also think the premiums on some items are a bit too high overall. I know the mint is run as a business and with the intention to make and not lose tax payer money but sometimes the premiums seem excessive to me. I'd also like the mint to sell standard non proof bullion ASE and AGE's so I could just order from the mint direct and not have to go through other vendors. I also think it would be a good idea for the mint to hold a certain number of limited mintage sets in reserve to allow people the chance to return a set if they get one with some product defects. Selling them all out and then not offering a replacement for people that may get stuck with non pristine set seems a bit harsh even if they will refund your purchase price.[/QUOTE]
