Section I – Budget Request

A – Mission Statement

Enables America’s economic growth and stability by protecting assets entrusted to us and 

manufacturing coins and medals to facilitate national commerce.

B – Summary of the Request 

In Fiscal Year (FY) 2019, the Mint’s total estimated budgetary requirements for operations, 

metal, and capital investments are $2.97 billion. This budget will support the production of 14.5

billion circulating coins, as well as the production of bullion and other numismatic products 

sufficient to meet customer demand. The Mint has one budget activity:

Manufacturing, which encompasses the bureau’s two major programs, circulating coinage

and numismatic products (including bullion coins, collector coins, and national medals). 

To maintain its reputation as one of the finest mints in the world, the Mint is committed to 

operating according to the core values of service, quality, and integrity. The Mint has three 

strategic goals to help fulfill its mission and values: 1) to foster a safe, flexible, diverse, and 

engaged workforce; 2) to improve mission critical activities and governance; and 3) to integrate 

technology into operations and support lines. These goals align with Treasury Strategic Goals 

1 and 5: to boost U.S. economic growth and to achieve operational excellence. 

In an effort to align more closely with Treasury’s strategic goal of achiving operational 

excellence, the Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP) and the Mint will streamline certain 

functions by migrating BEP’s online numismatic sales and marketing presence to the Mint’s 

recently modernized E-Commerce infrastructure and services platform and centrally 

coordinating non-IT procurements, creating economies of scale and reducing expenses.

Mint operations are funded through the Mint Public Enterprise Fund (PEF), 31 U.S.C. § 5136. 

The Mint generates revenue through the sale of circulating coins to the Federal Reserve Banks 

(FRB), numismatic products to the public, and bullion coins to authorized purchasers. All 

circulating and numismatic operating expenses, along with capital investments incurred for the 

Mint’s operations and programs, are paid out of the PEF. By law, all funds in the PEF are 

available without fiscal year limitation. Revenues determined to be in excess of the amount 

required by the PEF are transferred to the United States Treasury General Fund.

Circulating

Circulating coin production projections are based on current economic data and forecasts of FRB 

coin orders. Circulating coin production for FY 2018 and FY 2019 is forecasted at 14.0 and 14.5

billion coins, respectively. This level reflects a 0.5 percent decrease for FY 2018 and three

percent increase in FY 2019 in shipments of all coin denominations as compared to 14.1 billion 

in FY 2017. Circulating financial performance continues to be affected by the costs of the inputs 

for producing the coinage.
MINT - 4

Numismatic Program

The numismatic program, which includes bullion coins, is designed to prepare and distribute 

premium products to collectors and those who desire quality versions of coinage. Numismatic 

products are priced to cover metal and production costs.

Bullion Coins 

The bullion coin program provides the public a means to acquire precious metal coins as part of 

an investment portfolio. In FY 2017, bullion demand declined to 24.7 million ounces from the 

45.1 million ounces sold in FY 2016. Demand for bullion is forecasted at 36.9 million ounces in 

FY 2018 and 34.8 million ounces in FY 2019. Bullion revenue is forecasted to be $2.0 billion in 

both FY 2018 and FY 2019.

Numismatic (Collector Coins and Medals)

The numismatic program provides high-quality versions of circulating coinage, precious metal 

coins, commemorative coins, and national medals for sale to the public. Numismatic revenue 

decreased by six percent from $413 million in FY 2016 to $387 million in FY 2017. The 

decrease was driven primarily by lower customer demand for numismatic products in the fourth 

quarter of FY 2017. Total units decreased by six percent from 4.2 million in FY 2016 down to 

3.9 million in FY 2017. FY 2018 and FY 2019 numismatic revenues are projected to be $327

million and $305 million, respectively, as demand for numismatic products is projected to 

continue to decrease to 3.8 million in FY 2018 and 3.7 million in FY 2019.

FY 2018 Revised Estimated Resources ...............................................+$250,000,000 / -96 FTE

Metal Due to Forecasted Decrease in Circulating Coin Production, -$30,000,000 / -0 FTE

Circulating coin production for FY 2018 is forecasted at 14 billion, a 13 percent decrease from 

the 16 billion coins originally planned. As a result of this decrease in production levels, the 

amount and cost of metal to be purchased for the circulating coin program is reduced.

Metal Due to Forecasted Increase in Numismatic Coin Metal Prices, +$280,000,000 / -0 FTE

FY 2018 forecasted increases in metal prices results in an increase in the cost of the metal to be 

purchased for the numismatice/bullion coin programs. 

FTE Requirements, $0 / -96 FTE

To align with the Administration’s initiative to improve Government efficiency and 

effectiveness, the Mint implemented staffing streamlining efforts in FY 2017. Further staffing 

reviews to ensure appropriate staffing levels for maximum efficiency resulted in a reduction in 

the estimated FTE necessary for 2018 from 1,801 to 1,705.

D – Appropriations Language and Explanation of Changes

Appropriations Language Explanation of 

Changes

DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY

UNITED STATES MINT PUBLIC ENTERPRISE FUND

Federal Funds

Pursuant to section 5136 of title 31, United States Code, the United States 

Mint is provided funding through the United States Mint Public Enterprise 

Fund for costs associated with the production of circulating coins, 

numismatic coins, and protective services, including both operating 

expenses and capital investments: Provided, That the aggregate amount of 

new liabilities and obligations incurred during fiscal year 2019 under such 

section 5136 for circulating coinage and protective service capital

investments of the United States Mint shall not exceed $30,000,000.

Note.—A full-year 2018 appropriation for this account was not enacted at 

the time the budget was prepared; therefore, the budget assumes this account 

is operating under the Continuing Appropriations Act, 2018 (Division D of 

P.L. 115–56, as amended). The amounts included for 2018 reflect the 

annualized level provided by the continuing resolution.

E – Legislative Proposals

Alternative Metal Composition

This proposal would give the Secretary the authority to prescribe the compositions of the nickel,

dime, and quarter-dollar coins, provided that the new metal compositions do not affect the 

electromagnetic signature (EMS), color, or weight of the coins.

There are two basic compositions that are under consideration. The first, 80/20 composition 

which is a leaner version of the cupronickel (currently in production) has a nominal composition 

of 77 percent copper, 20 percent nickel and 3 percent manganese as compared to the current 

cupronickel composition of 75 percent copper and 25 percent nickel. The 80/20 material is 

applicable to 5-cent, dime, and quarter production. There is minimal to no risk as this alloy has 

been tested internally and externally and is seamless to our current coinage. Incremental annual

savings are approximately $4 million depending on volume and metal prices at the time of 

production.

The second composition respresents the leanest composition that provides a seamless EMS, 

comparable color and feasibility of large scale production. It is a nominal composition of 50.75

percent copper, 14 percent nickel, 33 percent zinc and 2.1 percent manganese. This leaner alloy 

is cladded to a copper core for the 10-cent and 25-cent. This contains less of the more expensive 

nickel and copper than the current coinage material. While there is some risk associated with this 

composition, testing and adjustments continue in order to mitigate risk. Incremental savings 

(depending on volume and metal prices) are projected at $16.6 million annually.

By authorizing the Secretary the flexibility to implement small changes to the copper-nickel 

circulating coin metal compositions, the Mint could realize incremental material savings with 

little or no impact to the vending industry or general public.

Section II – Annual Performance Plan and Report

A – Strategic Alignment

The Mint aligns with the following Department of the Treasury’s Strategic Plan for FY 2018-

2022 goals: 

 Goal 1: Boost U.S. Economic Growth

o Objective 1.3 Trusted Currency and Services: Deliver trusted currency and services 

that enable citizens and businesses to participate in the economy.

 Goal 5: Achieve Operational Excellence 

o Objective 5.1 Workforce Management: Deliver trusted currency and services that 

enable citizens and businesses to participate in the economy.

o Objective 5.2 Treasury Infrastructure: Better enable mission delivery by improving 

the reliability, security, and resiliency of Treasury’s infrastructure.

o Objective 5.3 Delivering customer value: Improve customer value by increasing the 

quality and lowering the cost of Treasury’s products and services.

Initiatives to support the goals outlined in Treasury’s strategic plan include the Mint and BEP

partnering to streamline certain functions by migrating BEP’s online numismatic sales and 

marketing presence to the Mint’s recently modernized E-Commerce infrastructure and services 

platform and centrally coordinating non-IT procurements, creating economies of scale and 

reducing expenses.

Circulating Coinage Program

Circulating coinage includes the minting and issuing of pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarterdollars. The Mint delivers circulating coinage to the FRBs in quantities to support their service 

to commercial banks and other financial institutions. These financial institutions then meet the 

coinage needs of retailers and the public. The Mint recognizes revenues from the sale of 

circulating coins at face value when they are shipped to the FRBs.

The Mint will continue to mint and issue circulating quarter-dollar coins honoring America’s 

national parks and other national sites, in accordance with the America the Beautiful National 

Parks Quarter Dollar Coin Act of 2008 (Public Law 110-456). In 2018, the Mint will release 

quarters honoring Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore (Michigan), Apostle Islands National 

Lakeshore (Wisconsin), Voyageurs National Park (Minnesota), Cumberland Island National 

Seashore (Georgia), and Block Island National Wildlife Refuge (Rhode Island). In 2019, the 

Mint will release quarters honoring Lowell National Historical Park (Massachusetts), American 

Memorial Park (North Mariana Islands), War in the Pacific National Historical Park (Guam), 

San Antonio Missions National Historical Park (Texas), and Frank Church River of No Return 

Wilderness (Idaho).

Numismatic Program

Bullion Coins 

The Mint produces and issues gold, silver, platinum, and palladium bullion coins to authorized 

purchasers through the American Eagle, American Buffalo, and America the Beautiful Silver 

Bullion Coin Programs to fulfill investor demand. The authorized purchasers agree to maintain 

an open, two-way market for these coins, ensuring their availability for consumers who desire 
MINT - 10

them for investment portfolios. Demand for bullion coins is greatly influenced by the 

performance of other investment options, such as equities or currency markets, and therefore is 

highly unpredictable. The content and purity of the precious metal in the bullion coins are 

backed by the United States Government.

Other Numismatic Products 

The Mint’s numismatic program provides high-quality versions of circulating coinage, precious 

metal coins, commemorative coins, and national medals for sale directly to the public. For some 

numismatic products, authorizing legislation specifies program requirements, such as design 

theme, mintage level, and duration of product availability. Other programs are structured by law 

to grant the Secretary of the Treasury discretion in determining product specifications. 

The Mint will continue to mint and issue $1 coins commemorating the important contributions 

made by Indian tribes and individual Native Americans to the development and history of the 

United States in accordance with the Native American $1 Coin Act (Public Law 110-82).

Commemorative coins are authorized by law to recognize and honor people, places, events, 

institutions, and other subjects of historic or national significance. Each coin is minted and 

issued by the Mint in a limited quantity and is available only for a limited time. Included in the 

price is a surcharge that is authorized to be paid to the designated recipient organizations, 

assuming all legal requirements have been met. Recipient organizations must use the proceeds 

for the purposes specified in the enabling legislation. In 2018, the Mint has authorization to mint 

commemorative coins for two programs: the World War I American Veterans Centennial 

Commemorative Coin (Public Law 113-212) and the Breast Cancer Awareness Commemorative 

Coin (Public Law 114-148). In 2019, the Mint has authorization to mint commemorative coins 

for two programs: the Apollo 11 50th Anniversary Commemorative Coin (Public Law 114-282) 

and the American Legion 100th Anniversary Commemorative Coin (Public Law 115-65).

Manufacturing Budget and Performance

($2,970,276,000 from offsetting collections) The Mint will mint and issue circulating coins and 

produce numismatic products, including bullion, to meet demand.

Description of Performance:

Several key performance measures are used to gauge the bureau’s progress in achieving its 

strategic goals and to assess its Manufacturing Budget Activity performance.

Customer Satisfaction Index (CSI)

The Mint conducts a quarterly survey of a random sample of active numismatic customers. The 

survey is intended to capture customer satisfaction with the Mint’s service performance as a coin 

products supplier and with the quality of specific products. The CSI metric is a quantitative 

score summarizing the survey’s results into one consolidated value. This metric gauges 

performance results in the effort to achieve the Mint’s internal strategic plan goal, “Improve 

mission critical activities and governance,” and the strategic objective linked to this goal, “Drive 

a customer-centric organization.”

By the end of FY 2017, the CSI reached 91.7 percent, exceeding its 90.0 percent target. The Mint 

anticipates the FY 2018 and 2019 CSI ratings will remain steady. The performance target for 

CSI remains at 90.0 percent for both FY 2018 and FY 2019.

Numismatic Sales Units

The numismatic sales unit metric measures public demand for coin products sold from 

numismatic operations. This metric also measures performance results achieving the Mint’s 

internal strategic plan goal, “Improve mission critical activities and governance,” as well as the 

strategic objective linked to this goal, “Drive a customer-centric organization.”

In FY 2017, the Mint sold 3.9 million units, 11 percent below the fiscal year target of 4.4 million 

units. The primary drivers for the lower than anticipated results was a shortfall in sales of annual 

precious metal coins, partially due to an overabundance of coin products available on the 

secondary market, and the conclusion of the Presidential $1 Coin program. A lack of market 

enthusiasm for the FY 2017 commemorative coins also contributed to the shortfall. 

Accordingly, numismatic unit sales performance targets have been established at 3.5 million 

units for both FY 2018 and FY 2019. To meet these targets, the Mint plans to continue to 

provide high-quality products and maintain outstanding customer service. 

Safety Incident Recordable Rate

The safety incident recordable rate is the number of injuries and illnesses meeting the 

Occupational Safety and Health Administration recording criteria per 100 full-time workers. It 

measures the occurrence of work-related incidents involving death, lost-time and restricted work, 

loss of consciousness, and medical treatment. The safety incident recordable rate indicates 

performance results in the effort to achieve the Mint’s internal strategic plan goal, “Foster a safe, 

flexible, diverse, and engaged workforce,” and the corresponding strategic objective linked to 

this goal, “Continue to cultivate a safe working environment.”
MINT - 12

By the end of FY 2017, the total recordable case rate reached 1.96, well below the Mint’s 2.82 

FY 2017 target, and significantly below the most recent industry average rate of 5.2 published in 

2015 by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics for the Non-Automotive Metal Stamping industry.

During FY 2017, the Mint continued implementing and updating risk management guidelines to 

prioritize resources, mitigating risks in advance of injuries or catastrophic events at each 

plant. Mint facility leadership and employees continue to interact on a daily basis on the 

importance of safety.

The performance targets for the safety incident recordable rate are 2.75 for both FY 2018 and 

FY 2019.

Seigniorage per Dollar Issued

Seigniorage per dollar issued is the financial return on circulating operations, calculated as 

seigniorage divided by the total face value of circulating coins shipped to the FRBs. It measures 

the cost effectiveness of minting and issuing the United States’ circulating coinage. It also 

measures performance results achieving the Mint’s internal strategic plan goal, “Improve mission 

critical activities and governance,” as well as the strategic objective linked to the goal, “Achieve 

operational advancements in lines of operations.”

At the end of FY 2017, Seigniorage per dollar issued was $0.45, below the FY 2017 performance 

target of $0.48. FY 2017 results fell below targeted and prior year performance as a result of a 

14 percent decrease in circulating shipment volumes, combined with a four percent increase in 

the cost of metal.

The United States Mint expects production volumes to remain low and per-unit metal prices to 

increase as market prices are expected to escalate in FY 2018. The seigniorage per dollar issued 

performance targets are set at $0.43 in FY 2018 and FY 2019 each year.

Performance Measure Changes 

With the publication of Treasury’s Strategic Plan for FY 2018-2022, Mint will work this year to 

baseline performance against the new strategic objectives. This could result in changes to 

performance measures in the FY 2020 budget.

Section III – Additional Information

A – Summary of Capital Investments

The Mint’s capital investment requirements are predominantly for manufacturing-type 

equipment. Capital investments, along with its operating expenses, are paid out of the Mint’s
