What if the US Mint made a puck for every coin?

I like the 2019 Native American dollar because of it's space themed reverse showing John Herrington and Mary Golda Ross. I thought it would be great to have a puck for this to give as a gift to inspire science and exploration, and then thought about others that may want to give other coins as gifts leading me to ask

...what if every coin was available as a puck?

What do you think? Great idea or too over the top?

    What’s a puck, the large 5oz versions?

    Yes, I thought giving a small dollar as an inspirational gift was cool but then thought what if it was 5oz of silver?

    There is that. Perhaps limit it to special one year reverses?

    @zoins Based on what the mint charges for a puck, that would be a gift that I would think twice about giving. I'd probably give one to myself (because, after all, I deserve it :) ) but beyond that I'm unsure who I'd give one to.

    Actually, that would be as gifts for special occasions... I already give ASE's for births in the family and friends. So these would be good for graduations and other important events. Cheers, RickO
