Mint sells bronze Billie Jean King medals

The U.S. Mint can make and sell bronze duplicate copies of Billie Jean King’s Congressional Gold Medal. You can buy a bronze duplicate at a price that covers the Mint’s full costs, like labor, materials, dies, machinery, and overhead. Money from these sales goes into the Mint’s Public Enterprise Fund, which also pays the minting costs. This authority is in effect now.
