What’s that company that sells all sorts of silver and gold coins that really look like US coins? How do they get away with it?

You know, I really am not familiar with the company your referring to. You might be referring to the "Franklin Mint". While I'm no numismatic authority, I believe that private company does enjoy license rights from the US government (and other governments) to issue commemorative US coins. In other words, they have legal permission.
