Good questions indeed. I'd also like to see what type of accounting chicanery is going on between the Federal Reserve and the gooberm't that gives their scam the appearance of legitimacy.
Here's some info they're (the FRB) willing to disclose at a high level:
http://www.federalreserve.gov/paymentsystems/coin/
And here's the hint of the chicanery:

The asset counterpart to the Federal Reserve liability takes the form of securities of the U.S. Treasury and government-approved enterprises (Treasury and federal agency securities represent the majority of the total collateral for currency in circulation). Because the value of currency in circulation changes daily, the Reserve Banks monitor and report changes in net payments to the Board.

Coin, however, is an asset on the Federal Reserve's balance sheet, and is a direct obligation of the U.S. Treasury. As an asset, the Federal Reserve buys coin from the Mint at face value.
