First of all, there are currently four active US Mints. * Philadelphia * Denver * San Francisco * West Point , but it only makes platinum, gold and silver coins. There were more, Carson City being a famous one. The basic reasons is that there isn't a need for them. The ones currently in operation are able to handle the quantities needed. Security is tight, particularly at West Point.
