<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Just Carl, post: 267295, member: 4552&quot;]Discussed on TV,&nbsp; newspapers, etc all the time. Then forgotten. People just can&#039;t remember how the government is constantly noted as spending $$$ on a hammer or such. They spend millions forming a committee to study why people are breathing air. So just why would our government care about the cost of making coins. I&#039;ve said this many times previously. The amount of money to make a cent appears high but that is only the tip of the iceberg so to speak. The actual cost does not include the salaries of the Mint&#039;s personal, utility costs, shipping coins out and just maintenance of the buildings. Guards to&nbsp; protect what is made, pensions, hospitalization and probably a limo for the higher personal. When all added to the cost of a cent it would mean each one costs lots but it is only tax money so who cares. </p><p>Just wonder when they will outsourse our monitary system to India or China.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
