The reason the Post Office is selling the coin for $25 is because they did not get any discount from the Mint for this coin, unlike the other coins they sell.
The Post Office got the coins for $20, so they have to mark it up to $25 to make money.

Just noticed that the RCM has put up the "Sold Out" tag for this one! Collecting history one coin or medal at a time! (c) commems. All rights reserved.

You can't very well leave it out if you are collecting the set.

 It is unfortunate, but a reality. No way will I ever put this coin reverse up! |

Wow - I also noticed the SOLD OUT sign. Hard to believe, unless a lot more people like me got sucked in by the subscription. Good move RCM. Or, maybe they just stopped production, and called it the day. Giving the illusion of success. Well, RCM needs to move on to the next one anyway. |

"dealers are paying up to 15x face value for SILVER coins" not necessarily the $20 coin. Yes, I've seen a roll of silver quaters ($10) sold for $170 on ebay... so 15x is believable. |
