Those don't appear to be US Mint dies.

Another important issue involves our customs letting these things in. Since most are not stamped COPY, they are clearly breaking the law. We must ENFORCE the laws in the USA or we are no longer a country. They need to find these when they're coming in!

The problem is how do you do it? A single container ship may have from 200 to 400 of those containers on it. Each one would have to be brought to the dock, unloaded, inspected,and reloaded. And there are dozens if not hundreds of those ships coming in every day. Then there is what gets trucked in, and what gets flown in and then packages in the mail. And think about the delays to the shipping! It's Feb 2, got a package coming in from overseas? You'll see it in December. And your going to have to add several hundred thousand if not millions of inspectors. Yes I suppose it could be done, but it would be a nightmare.

I'm assuming you are basing that on the shape of the dies. I hoped there might be someone here that would know the shape because my pictures don't show enough detail for anything else. These have been sitting in that display case since at least mid-2015. The price was covered but I remember it being somewhere between $2-300. Anyone have a comment on the legality of these things?
