Has the US found a home for its unwanted Sac and Prez bucks?

Maybe the Treasury and some Federal Reserve Branches can dump their excess inventory in Zimbabwe.

Yeah, I think there are a couple of SA countries that use them as their own currency.

I planned to buy a box of 2011 NA bucks to spend over the next year until I read this on the new order form:

 

"The United States Mint will implement an order fulfillment charge of $12.50 for each box of $1 Coins purchased through the $1 Coin Direct Ship Program effective November 15. This new charge is a result of our continual effort to review programs to ensure that they meet our commitment to prudent fiscal management on behalf of the American public."

 

I don't mind relieving the Treasury's inventory of coins, but I'm too cheap to pay to do so.
