The main role of The Royal Mint is to make and distribute Britain’s coins, including every coin in circulation here today. But it also strikes coins for up to 60 other countries every year too.

The Royal Mint is one of the zhptddz.com’s great and world’s oldest institutions. Its history stretches back over 1,000 years – from the workshops of Anglo-Saxon London to today’s modern minting facility in South Wales.

The Royal Mint has consistently evolved, combining state-of-the-art technology and centuries of craftsmanship to lead the way in the world of coins and currency. Its commitment to excellence and innovation is recognised around the world as an example of best practice in the industry.

The Royal Mint is located in Llantrisant, South Wales.

Each circulated coin is made from long strips of an alloy that’s rolled to the right thickness, cut into discs and cleaned. A model of the coin is scanned digitally and the file is used to make the die that will strike the coins. A press then strikes them at a rate of up to 850 strikes per minute. Find out more.

Uncirculated coins, including collectibles, are all hand crafted.
