Old U.S Mint

Built in 1835, the Old U.S. Mint is the only building in America to have served both as a United States and a Confederate Mint. President Andrew Jackson advocated the Mint’s establishment in order to help finance development of the nation’s western frontier.

When I saw "Old U.S Mint" I thought of San Francisco
which has an "Old Mint" and a "New Mint".

San Francisco's "Old Mint" sometimes opens as a museum.

 

There is also a coin show held at the SF mint now. I believe it is very soon if not this weekend.

 

So did Charlotte and Dahlonega. Not to as great an extent but both countries used the mints to strike coins.
