Federated Mint

Federated Mint is a total scam! DO NOT ORDER ANYTHING FROM THESE GUYS! Ordered the “unsearched vault bag nearly 3 lbs of coins” placed order December 14, 2021. Received several calls indicating order was delayed due to Covid. Original order was to be shipped 60-90 days after placing order. I think they do this so you are outside the credit card dispute window? Contacted them twice and was told order was shipping now 7/11/22. I then called to cancel order and then they promptly placed the order on a priority shipment with a date to be received by 6/15. Once the order was received and inspected, it was not what was advertised. A couple of beat up warn silver quarters, dollar coins not “silver dollars” and a bunch of garbage coins such a wheat pennys. I called to confirm a return address and was given a P. O. Box for returns. I know for a fact FedEx will not deliver to a PO Box. Insisted on getting a street address such as the one listed on the order to send back coins and promptly got attitude. Asked to talk to someone that would give me an address and was denied! I the called my AMEX card people and they now are disputing the charge. Screw these guys!

I have had it with Scammers! I'm really shocked the post office still sends this crap in my mailbox after complaining so many times and to many different places. This time I took the time to go above and beyond all heads and submitted all this info and reviews and documents I have and from others to finally put these a**holes behind bars or take everything they have and throw them to hungry wild boars. I go to jail and go through 7 years of court and fines and fees for being tempted to take $1800 of which I paid back, but then people like these get away and keep doing what they do for years now. I dont get it so I took the liberty to start putting a stop to this silver vault bag bs! Just call up FTC. All they need is 3 or more complaints if the same scam type spree that they go after them and usually are caught with in the month. And they will notify me when they are stopped. Yw! Peace to all! And never be tempted for temptation is the root of evil.

These guys are .9999 pure BS! I takes no brains to know a scam. A simple call to the "fulfillment center" revealed that they couldn't tell me exactly how much gold was layered on their "State Bars". He was able to reveal that the base wasn't zinc, but copper. At $7 per pound, 20 ounces of copper is worth $8.75 - add a couple microns of elelctroplated "24K" gold and this is what you got (robbed)... $980 worth of complete rubbish that cost them a mere $20 to get to your doorstep. Shame on you Federated Mint and shame on Mary Ellen Withrow. Leave it to a former US Treasurer - they wrote the book on screwing an entire nation!

I bought gold bars from Federated Mint on 1/11 and had instant regret the same day and asked for a refund. I submitted my request to their email address (because of course they don't have a customer service phone number) They told me it would take 14 business days to get my money back...it has now been 17 days and nothing, radio silence. They do not have a customer service phone number to call and only have an email address. I absolutely feel like I have been scammed, one of the dumbest decisions I have ever made. DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM THESE GUYS EVER.

I ordered several state silver bars from the Federated Mint, after they ran a full page ad in our local newspaper. That was April 16.2020. Today is July 2,2020, and I still have NOT received my bars. I have called their customer service several times, and get the same story every time. They are supposed to get back in contact with me, but I have not received any kind of communication from them. I feel like I have been scammed. HELP!

I ordered these coins on 4/03/20 and spent 350.00 for them. they were to be here in 10 working days. Well now it is 6/05 and still NO COINS. I contacted you people 7 times and left 4 messages with your cr and talked to several of your people on the ordering number. I also contacted the YUMA SUN PAPER this morning and told them about this issue. ONE of the supervisors are calling me back @10:00 am today. I want my refund. Next contact will be THE BBB. you people need to respond SOON .

I received my shipment of morgan era coins and received ( 2 )1884 coins but did not receive a 1885 morgan silver dollar.

was issued to your *** ending in *** on July 6, Next, we would like to address your concern regarding the purchase price of the State Silver BarsI understand what you’re saying, but comparing the spot price of silver to these State Silver Bars is like comparing apples and orangesFor example; a one ounce U.SGov’t issued American eagle silver dollar has a face value of just $dollar, but many of them have a collector value of hundreds of dollarsThe same principle applies hereThese state silver bars are the only ones known to exist so who knows what they could be worth someday We trust this resolves the matter to your satisfactionHowever, if this is not the case, or if you have any further questions or concerns, please contact me directly at (*** *** Sincerely, *** ***

*** *** *** We are in receipt of your information and would like to take this opportunity to address your concerns. As the advertisement explains (copy attached), “Residents who find their state on the
Distribution List above in bold and beat the deadline are authorized to get individual State Silver Bars at just state minimum of $set by the Lincoln Treasury.” Further explained, “For the next days residents who find their state on the Distribution List above in bold are getting individual State Silver Bars at just the state minimum of $set by the Lincoln TreasuryThat’s why everyone should be taking full Vault Bricks loaded with five U.SState Silver Bars before the deadline ends.” In addition to the aforementioned excerpts, the price of $for individual bars is reiterated in at least two other locations within the advertisement. Our records show you purchased one vault brick containing single U.SState Silver Bars on February 23, The breakdown of your order is as follows: one U.SState Silver Vault Brick ($times bars = $295), protective seals for each bar ($times bars = $20), shipping and handling of $equals your order total of $329.
