I didn't know that the "S mint" had stopped producing its own circulation coins (aka "business strike" coins) back in 1974 And the history of the 2nd building was great info You learn something new every day - thanks!

Drew - AZURE Perth West Aust
In 10 years they won’t need this as USD will change to digital and a plethora of crypto currencies will drive a disruption like no other we have experienced before shifting the finance power base from Gov and Corporate institutions and empowering the people with control over their own money
Comment from : Drew - AZURE Perth West Aust


sfchris
I always thought the "S" stood for "behind Safeway", or "next to Sees Candy"

Comment from : Dino Sqautch


Appreciative Observer
Since the coins made in San Francisco are sold for more than they are worth, where does the money go? I have been asking this question for more than 25 years and I have yet to hear an answer that makes sense Did you find out where the "extra" money goes?

mnml_blk
I lived in SF for the better part of 15 years and everyone always called it "the Mint" there's even a bar named after it on Market Street a few blocks down the hill It literally says United States Mint right above the windows
Comment from : mnml_blk


JMC 4077
You mean they are counterfeiting money Money, as defined by the Constitution can only be gold or silver brWhy is a dime smaller than a nickel? Because dimes were made of silver (ten cents worth of silver) and if you made a five cent piece from silver, it would be half the size of a dime, and too small to be handled So they made the five cent piece from nickel, and the one cent from copper New "money" looks the same, but is all fake
Comment from : JMC 4077

Comment from : David Kornfeld


foodiusmaximus
when I lived in SF everyone knew what the building was I only moved 5 years ago after living there for 20 years I'm pretty sure they just needed to make interesting content It's more compelling if no one knows what the building is
Comment from : foodiusmaximus

Roger Wilco
I didn't know there was so much demand for commemorative coin sets that a mint with so many employees would be dedicated just to making them!
