<p>[QUOTE=&quot;coleguy, post: 286981, member: 9167&quot;]Maybe what you are referring to is the old Moffat &amp; Company building that the mint took over before the first mint was built. I suppose it could be considered the first mint in SF, but I doubt the US Mint put any coins in cornerstones, as the building had already been there for years. The next two mints still remain intact today.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>It could be possible Moffat $ Co places coins (they would be gold) in a cornerstone. To the best of my knowledge, that building no longer exists. But, I have heard the story you are asking about. It would be interesting if someone could dig up some more info on this.</p><p>Guy~[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
