: It is true that I could buy these coins directly from the U.S. Mint. But the Mint is charging $5.95 per coin (I'm attaching link below). If I were to buy all 40 coins -- and the price were never to go up -- that would be $238, compared to the $162 I am spending.

The mint price is for "mint proof" coins, the WRME is selling 'never circulated' coins, which I suppose is supposed to sound like "uncirculated" but isn't the same.

The mint has better pricing on sets for the year with all the coins, you can get all four coins uncirculated from either mint for $8.95 total, or a set with both mints for $15.95 (8 coins).
