[QUOTE="chrisild, post: 1616139, member: 39"]Hmm, do you fly from time to time? :) As far as I remember (visited the US Mint in Philadelphia in 2010), security was not a big deal. What was a little inconvenient was that they do not have any lockers - after all, you cannot take your bag inside with you. But the check was not "tougher" than security checks elsewhere ... Yes, a guided tour would be nice. Of course I appreciate the fact that you can come at any time and visit the mint (without having to pay an admission fee), but why not offer an additional tour with a guide, say once a week? One nice thing - when we came in, we were asked provide some photo ID, and I had my passport with me. Only a few seconds later I was given a mint brochure in German. Neat! Christian[/QUOTE]
