<p>[QUOTE="johnny2dollar, post: 1989573, member: 29612"]I am not sure there is a tremendous amount of profit being made by these collectibles given the minuscule fraction of total production they represent. I think the main goal is to get people interested in currency and produce gift or collectible keepsakes for those that want them. The BEP is responsible for over half trillion dollars in currency every year. It seems unlikely that the collectibles produced represent any significant profit for this agency. If anything, any profit probably helps to offset the cost of having facility tours for the public.</p><p><br /></p><p>As far as letting collectors decide on which notes are collectible, well, they have. Some collectors like the specially produced high quality coins or specially packaged paper currency produced and offered as collectibles. Other collectors like notes with certain serial number sequences or smaller production runs, etc. Suum cuique pulchrum est.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
