Slabbed Liberty Seated half dollars recovered from the SS Republic. They look really nice considering where they were found...

This press actually came from San Francisco, but it is the same as one used in New Orleans...

A lowball and a Confederate Half Dollar. They are actually mounted a lot further away, but I cropped the image to put them together...

If you ride the Riverfront Streetcar, the last stop on the line, French Market Station, is right at the Mint building. Get off the trolley, look to the left and there you are!

There is no charge for admission, just walk right in and say hello the the guard at the desk. Everything mint related is on the first floor and there are bathrooms on site.
