Message:: [QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 1229921, member: 15929"]I was under the impression that these came from the PBGS Facility. Are you suggesting that PBGS Orders them from a Federal Storage Facility, repackages them and then ships them out? Or are they sent directly from US Mint Storage for packaging? The US Mint DOES have Storage Facilities. It's where they keep all them silver coins/commems and Kennedy's and Proof sets and "what not's" that they make up every year. The July 25th Coin World quoted the Dallas Federal Reserve as stating that $650,000 would be spent for a storage facility. Thats pretty danged cheap ($650,000 over the next 4 years) for a secure facility. Unless of course, its BS wrapped around the cost of converting one of their already secure warehouses? The Two Dollar Bill should have been stopped ages ago or at the minimum, made as a coin. I'm of the opinion, based upon the absolute silliness of suggesting that a waste has occured, the both bills before Congress were initiated by the Federal Reserve as they are obviously tired of playing this dollar coin storage game. The ONLY problem that exists is in giving folks a "choice". Eliminate the "choice" and start saving some money. They save money either way (eliminate the coin or eliminate the bill) but ONLY one will actually "save" money in the long run.[/QUOTE]
