even Normal Coins are not debt, though. coins are different. yes, the decisionmaking process is a bit more complex than what i'm laying out, but the properties of the coinage are the same
You're right that coins aren't debt, but that's because the Mint doesn't report to the federal reserve, the report to the secretary of treasury. The only time coins go through the fed is to fund the mint itself. The secretary of treasury cannot increase the coins in circulation

Seems like the treasury can mint coins whenever it wants? https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/31/5111 …
