So, to answer your question on statute:</p><p><br /></p><p>The Coinage Act of April 2, 1792</p><p><br /></p><p>And all subsequent acts related to coinage. The Director of the Mint is granted authority to control the distribution/circulation of coinage. As such, the authority, by rule of law, is implied to extend to defining penalties for circumventing said authority.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you feel so inclined to read the Act, here is a link to the .pdf file:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.usmint.gov/historianscorner/?action=DocDL&amp;doc=legactapr1792.pdf" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.usmint.gov/historianscorner/?action=DocDL&amp;doc=legactapr1792.pdf" rel="nofollow">http://www.usmint.gov/historianscorner/?action=DocDL&amp;doc=legactapr1792.pdf</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
