Recommended Website:
U.S. Mint
At this website you can take two different virtual tours of the United States Mint to see how circulated and collector’s coins are made. When you get to the website you’ll see a welcome message. Below it you can select either tour as follows:
- How Circulating Coins Are Made
- How Collectors Coins Are Made
Click on either one and a new page opens offering you the opportunity to view a slide show with pictures and text, or take a video tour by watching a narrated film of how coins are made.
Younger children may prefer the ANIMATED virtual tour of how coins are made that is available on the “Kids” section of the website.
Once you’re through with the tour you may enjoy exploring all of the activates, games, and lesson plans themed around coins and currency on the rest of the kids site.
Have fun!
