Clark, President Diamond State Depository Before the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Financial Services Subcommittee on Domestic Monetary Policy and Technology The State of U.S. Coins and Currency July 20, 2010 Chairman Watt, Ranking Member Paul and Members of the Subcommittee, my name is Michael Clark. I appear before you this afternoon as President of the Diamond State Depository, located in Wilmington, Delaware, a subsidiary of the Dallas-based Dillon Gage Group, Inc. Dillon Gage is one of 12 current Authorized Purchasers of American Eagle Silver Bullion Coins from the United States Mint. I have over 30 years experience in the precious metals and tangible assets industries, working for industry leaders such as Deak Perera, Wilmington Trust Corporation (NYSE: WL), and now Dillon Gage. I am a past Chairman, and remain a Director, of the Industry Council for Tangible Assets (ICTA), Inc., the national industry association for the rare coin, precious metals and tangible assets industry, which is headquartered in Severna Park, Maryland. It is a pleasure to speak with you today on the state of U.S. Coins and Currency. My purpose in appearing today is to address three issues, all related to coinage: 1. The market impacts of the U.S. Mint’s continued difficulties in keeping pace with market demand for its American Eagle Gold and Silver Bullion coinage programs; 2. The desire among collectors and investors alike for an American Eagle Palladium Bullion coin; and 3. The growing presence of counterfeit coins

Special presentations and programs are occasionally offered. A friendly welcome is to be had by all. TCC’s next meeting is Tuesday, May 14th, 2013. A Few Words from the Editor Throughout the years your editor has done his best to help educate the general population to coins which are not seen every day, yet are still legal tender. (See. Dr. Coyne) This practice includes sending back into change some Buffalo and V Nickels, and through the distribution of Half Dollars and Presidential Dollar coins acquired from the local bank by the roll. For the first time the other day I encountered some resistance. It was at a local restaurant here in Gilmer. I went to the register to pay my bill and as part of the package included a 1977 Kennedy Half and a U.S. Grant Presidential Dollar. The young lady at the register picked up each coin thoughtfully, studied them for a few moments and then sort of “nicely” accused me of trying to pull one over on her. I did my best to explain what she had in her possession.
