Where did the Chinese government get this equipment that eventually ended up in the hands of Big Tree Mint, you might wonder? The US Mint in Philadelphia, that's where! The US donated their old equipment to the Chinese when they built their new mint in Shanghai.</p><p><br /></p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
