A Letter From The Office Of The Director Of The United States Mint

Sorry. I am NOT on speaking terms with the United States Mint at the current time. They know what they did. When they decide to apologize they know my number. IF I don't decide to change it!

I got that letter, and didn't get my enrollment silver eagle, what improvement.

I have no idea what this is about.

If the director of the British Royal Mint wrote to me, I'd send her a letter back asking her to stop making so many NCLT coins and go back to one or two commemoratives a year, with cupro-nickel £5 coins distributed through banks and post offices at face value as they used to be!

Well, I didn't get the letter even though I've been signed up for all of their notifications. If customer service was really a priority they might have a department that really provides CUSTOMER SERVICE!

I had an enrollment for the three coin roll set of American Women Quarters which worked fine for the first two issues. When I didn't receive the third, I called and was told that there was a problem with the charge so my enrollment was cancelled. Of course the enrollments for that item were closed so I couldn't sign up again and they wouldn't re-instate it. There was no problem with the card on file, if there had been my card would have sent me a notice. Someone at the mint messed up and I paid the price.

The Mint is not in charge of what new coins they mint, but they could give some feedback to Congress.

Look to Congress to complain. What motivates a Congressperson?

The Treasury Department/US Mint have been providing Congress with feedback on commemorative coins for ~100 years. Congress basically goes forward with its own plan based on the perceived importance of the coin to constituents and the potential benefits to the sponsoring member(s) of Congress.


Not an opinion. Documented fact.
