It seems the BEP uses the same pricing model as the U.S. Mint.

overhead, markup, blah blah. Whatever. There's got to be a big profit margin there.

The sad thing is there always seems to be people that buy this stuff... I know some people that hate everything the mint puts out nowadays but this is something even I say is completely ridiculous. Oh well, a fool and his money...

I guess it's a matter of whatever floats your boat. If it makes somebody to have that in their collection, I guess I can't fault them.

I'm pretty sure the government has found a way to lose money even on something like this.

Wow, the BEP is starting to behave like a private mint or Littleton.
