I'm curious to know, for those interested in investing in physical currency, is it possible to purchase directly from the U.S. Mint? I understand that the Mint is responsible for producing and distributing official U.S. coins and currency, but does it also offer a retail service for individuals to buy directly? If so, what are the procedures and requirements for making such a purchase? Would this be a secure and cost-effective way to acquire genuine U.S. currency? Clarifying these points would help many investors interested in expanding their physical currency holdings.

In contrast to bullion coins, collectible coins such as commemorative coins, Proof Sets, and limited-edition coins are made available directly by the U.S. Mint.

Mint, as an institution, does not engage in direct sales of bullion coins to the general public.
