NFB of Washington Talk:
Here is a couple bits of information related to the potential for buying and selling of the Louis Braille Commemorative coin.
Chapters may purchase the coins and then sell them to the public. Once the coin belongs to you, it's yours to do with as you wish. This means that if you wanted to sell it for profit, you are well within your rights.
What is the U.S. mint's stance on people incorporating the coin into objects-plaques, necklaces, pen stands? Again, the same rule applies. Once the coin belongs to you, you are welcome to do with it as you choose. The one exception is that you are not allowed under federal regulation to deface or mutilate the coin in any way. This means you might be able to make a pendent necklace out of it, but I wouldn't want to drill a hole through the middle.
Finally, cCoins do not have to be purchased online . You can also call 1-800-USA-MINT.
