Apologies if this has been posted before but here is a very interesting video of a behind the scenes tour of the Mint in Ottawa.

Maybe we could keep this thread going as a repository of all videos relating to coinage.

A friend of mine is in the RM video.

Not nearly as much actual information in it but is sure is funny at times.

Coolest part of that video is the 1937 plaster from Kruger Grey... imagine being able to handle that history...

Probably the first film from the Royal Canadian Mint (from 1920).

I agree, that '37 plaster is awesome. I have the plaster from de Pedery-Hunt's '76 gold coin, which is pretty neat.

That 1920's film is cool. I wonder how much of that equipment is still on the floor of the Mint today.
