...should the mint release the gold union?

    Yes. I'd love to own one.

    That's a lot of metal. But I'd be quite tempted if they did it right.

    It's not like anyone is forcing you to buy one.

    I'd rather see a substantial, numismatically interesting and historically grounded bullion piece from the US mint than a new reverse on the worthless cent or the National Toothpick Sculpture dimes or Famous Sandwiches of the Nation nickel series, or whatever else the mint has next up their sleeve for circulating coinage.

    I wonder how much McDonalds would pay for a Big Mac on the reverse of the nickel. image
