Petersun Pillar of the Community Canada 1700 Posts	Posted 06/02/2012 12:01 am Currently, does the mint have any nickel or copper bullion coins, other than silver? Any 5 ounce silver coins on sale? The site's search engine is not so well developed, so I'm just wondering. By the way, I believe that the price for the halves mint bag has gone up a bit. Is that true? I don't know for sure, but last year, I visited philedelphia, and the price was only $134.95 instead of $139.95. Thank you Report this Post to the Staff

SaintRidley Pillar of the Community United States 592 Posts	Posted 06/02/2012 12:17 am As far as I know, no nickel or copper bullion. They only do silver, gold, and platinum bullion. http://catalog.usmint.gov/webapp/wc...ntifier=8305 You'll find the 5 oz silver America the Beautiful coins there. Rather easy to find them - click shop online and then the America the Beautiful silver coins section on the left. The difference in price on the bags might be an extra fee for shipping the bag, since you indicate you actually visited the Philly mint to price the bag last year. Hope all that helps.

ghostrider Pillar of the Community United States 1116 Posts	Posted 06/02/2012 12:18 am The mint does have 5 ounce coins. If fact they just released the El Yunque National Forest Puerto Rican coin a short time ago. The used to have some presidental and distinguished americans coins but they are not on the web site now and I don't remember what metal they were. They could have been bronze but I'm not sure now. The is no copper bullion coins available from the mint at this time and probably won't be unless they do away with the penny and do a monster penny to commerate this action.

Thats kind of my thoughts too. If it was going to happen it would have happened by now. I wish they would have at least released a trial coin to see how it would go. Or even release one with a limited mintage Report this Post to the Staff
Bizybackson Pillar of the Community United States 1817 Posts	Posted 06/02/2012 1:07 pm They aren't bullion, but the mint makes 3" bronze medals that contains between 8-9oz of copper for $44.95. These medals are minted on a press used to make the 5oz ATB coins and have a similar vapor blasted surface. Report this Post to the Staff
