I had a great time touring this facility.
Experts here will like some of the coin pics.
I was keen on the piles of silver bars in the old photos.

See the equipment and coins of the New Orleans Mint.

Great pics @SD! I seem to remember a really good place for muffulettas right near by to the old mint. Central Grocery I think.

I'm surprised at how slow the 1868 press was, just 1500 coins an hour? that's only 25 coins a minute. I thought these presses did 60 per minute.

Very nice!

I was there last summer. It is worth a visit if you ever get the chance.
