  WHO PAYS FOR MUTILATED CURRENCY REDEMPTION?
  

  Inspired by last week's item on the painstaking process of
  reconstructing mutilated currency for redemption, Arthur Shippee
  asks "Who paid for its recovery?"
  

  [Good question. It's Uncle Sam who pays. I've never heard of the
  submitter being charged a fee. I confirmed this with Bob Leuver,
  former head of the BEP. He writes: "I never thought about it. To
  my knowledge we never changed for the service. It was simply a
  service of the Treasury Department.
  

  You know, the Federal government performs or provides many
  services such as currency recovery without charging." -Editor]
