Analyzed Economic Effects

1 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 0 costs, 0 mixed.

Collectors could buy bronze medal copies

If enacted, the U.S. Mint could make and sell bronze copies of the gold medal in this bill. The sale price would have to cover all production costs, including labor, materials, dies, machine time, and overhead. Money from those sales would go into the Mint’s Public Enterprise Fund, which could also be used to pay the medals’ production costs. The medals would be treated as national, collectible items, guiding how the Mint handles and sells them. These changes would start when the bill takes effect.
