The US Treasury.AnswerTechnically, the United States Mint is responsible for printing or minting all US currency (paper and coinage). The US Mint is a branch of the Treasury Department.
The Mint was made an independent agency in 1799. Under the Coinage Act of 1873, the Mint became part of the Department of the Treasury. It was placed under the auspices of the Treasurer of the United States in 1981.
This is a token that is included with a Mint Uncirculated Set (of coins). These sets get broken apart for collectors and this token is what's left over. They usually end up in the 10-25 cent miscellaneous coins box on a dealer's counter.
It sounds like one of the mint tokens placed in with mint or proof sets. By themselves they really aren't worth much at all, a few cents at the most.
They are normally controlled by the treasury of the issuing country. In the UK, the Treasury controls the Bank of England which orders notes from the Royal Mint (coins) and De La Rue (notes). In the USA, the treasury controls the Federal Reserve, who instruct the Federal Bureau of Engraving and Printing to produce the notes and the United States Mint the coins.
The United States Department of the Treasury is the branch of the government that is allowed to print and mint all currency. This department was established in 1789 to manage government revenue.
I think that you are referring to the token packaged with uncirculated mint sets from the Denver mint. It has little or no value.
No. Only the U.S. Treasury Department can mint U.S. coins through the U.S. Mint.
