Rhett Jeppson is the Principal Deputy Director of the United States Mint, a position he has held since January 2015. President Barack Obama nominated Jeppson to the position of Mint Director in July of that year, but partisan politics in the United States Senate has held up the nomination. In the interim, Jeppson has filled the role of Mint Director without the benefit of the formal title. The United States Mint has gone without a Mint Director since Edmund C. Moy vacated the position in January 2011. In this episode of the CoinWeek Podcast, we sit down with Rhett to discuss his work at the Mint, the future of coinage, the Mint's numismatic division, and what he's valued most from his experience working with the men and women, who make our nation's coinage.
