Eric Ewanco asked:


I am trying to find out what dealer, if any, is authorized to sell commemorative and jubilee Ukrainian non-circulating gold and silver coins in the United States, or for that matter, in Ukraine. Specifically, I want to buy this coin: http://bank.gov.ua/Engl/Bank_coin/YUV_MON/Coins/Rizdvo/Khresch.htm . I have no idea whether it is still being issued (i.e. the mintage is not exhausted), or if I have to buy it on the secondary market.

Lacking that, a U.S. dealer who specializes in Slavic or Eastern European coins would also be a welcome answer.
Ok how about just some hints in going about finding this coin?
Coin Dude,

This site (which I also found, though it didn’t take me six hours :-)) is merely a clever front-end for a general-purpose auction site. It’s not run by any coin expert. In fact, if you click on one of the four “Ukrainian” coins they so prominently display, it brings you to the search results for a wide variety of coins, none of which, apparently, are Ukrainian. In fact I can’t find a single Ukrainian coin on the site. I find this site rather deplorable for its deceptive design.

Since you made an admirable good faith effort and since I need to select a best answer to get my three points back, I may still choose you as a best answer, but I want to wait for other answers first.

Kommercni Banka, owned by Bank Paribas, revealed that over 70% of its 2006 profits were generated from fees on accounts and loan review, whereas less than 30% were from the performance of loans and other financial instruments. In Hungary, banks routinely charge a minimum €1 fee when making a deposit to your account, as well as a min €1 fee for a withdrawal. Other than home mortgages, other forms of lending, including loans to small businesses, are practically non-existent throughout Central Eastern Europe.

Are banking fees in Central Eastern Europe egregious compared to banking fees in other Western European economies? Can banks justify such extraordinary fee levels in light of their extraordinary high levels of profit? Does the importance of fee income to the bank’s P&L diminish the importance of making loans, and stifle Central East European development in the entrepreneurial sector? Is this usurious and illegal and, if so, is this something the EU should address?

What do banks have to do in order to print money? In what circumstances do banks print money? Are there any times when banks absorb back money instead of printing more?
