<p>[QUOTE=&quot;sodude, post: 1272258, member: 30828&quot;]I went to the Philly Mint yesterday.</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s basically a long hallway. You pass by old displays of mostly medals. There were signs indicating that they are working on new displays. Then you turn back and view the factory. This part was very interesting. You can watch the long strips of metal going into the machines to make the blanks, and eventually coming out as finished coins into giant hoppers. </p><p><br /></p><p>At the end of the floor was a robot and a man finishing 5oz ATB silver coins. It looked like there was a mountain on the reverse, so it was probably the Glacier coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>The change machine that dispenses fresh quarters was out of order, but you could buy rolls of the 2011-P Vicksburg quarters at face value from the cashier in the gift shop.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
