INCREASING U.S. MINT SALES TO COLLECTORS

  Dick Johnson notes: "There is a brief article in Up Front section
  of Business Week (March 15, 2004, p14) which quotes Mint
  Director Henrietta Holsman Fore that lower demand for
  circulating coins has reduced the Mint's vigorish (read
  seignorage).  To replace this lost income, she is courting coin
  collectors to sell more numismatic items.  How about more
  significant themes  - the Thomas Edison silver dollar is an
  excellent example - and more beautiful coins like the Dolley
  Madison silver dollar?"
