As part of our ongoing effort to provide high-quality customer service, the United States Mint is committed to ensuring that information on our web sites is useful, accurate, clear, complete, and objective. Beginning in FY2004, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) required Federal agencies to post their Information Quality Requests for Correction (RFC) on the agency web site.
How can I correct information on a United States Mint web site?
You may submit a written request by letter or email. The United States
Mint will respond in same form as your request, unless you indicate otherwise.
Include the following in your request for correction:
-
Your name, organization (if any), and mailing address, or
your name, organization (if any), and email address. This
information is needed to respond to your request.
-
Description of the information to correct. Clearly indicate
the information that you believe is in error and should be
corrected. Include the web page where the information is located,
and what corrective action you believe should be taken. Indicate
why the information should be corrected and, if possible,
recommendations for how it should be corrected.
Section 515 of the Treasury and General Government Appropriations Act
for Fiscal Year 2001 (Public Law No. 106-554 codified at 44 U.S.C.
§ 3516) authorizes the collection of information furnished in a
request for correction or request for reconsideration. A requestor does
not have to furnish this information, but failure to do so may prevent
the request from being processed. The primary use of this information
is to allow the United States Mint to process and reply to the request.
The United States Mint may also disclose information to others as
authorized or required by Federal law.
Providing your contact information and information correction
requests that are specific will enable the United States Mint
to provide a satisfactory response.

correction is warranted, and if so, what action to take. Any corrective
action will be determined by the nature and timeliness of the information

working days. If the United States Mint cannot complete our review of your
