Here's what I wrote to the National Collector's Mint:
I was referred to you by the order line, where the information
I sought was unavailable, as the place to get answers to the
following questions:
1) What is the weight in (Troy?) ounces of this commemorative?
2) Is it really only forty cents U.S? The flyer states that my cost
is the face value of $20 plus $4 S&H, and LRD$24 converts to
approximately USD$0.40. Since the letter was signed by
Barry M. Goldwater, Jr., I know you would not attempt to
deceive people into believing that the face value of Liberian
currency is comparable to that of U.S. currency.
Conservatives could not possibly be that underhanded, no
matter what over a quarter of a century of devastation from
voodoo economics might suggest.
Sincerely,
[sixtiesradical]
Proud Liberal/Radical and Socialist
