Best Answer

Coins are produced by a facility called a mint.

The US has four active mints:

Philadelphia and Denver make coins for circulation

San Francisco makes proof coins and some commemoratives.

West Point makes commemorative and bullion coins.
In the UK, coinage is produced at The Royal Mint, Llantrisant, Pontyclun, Mid Glamorgan, Wales.

Value of liberty trade silver dollar 1886-1986?

Hi I have also been trying to find the value of these coins because I have a 1986 Liberty Trade Silver coin. Ive done the research and these coins were privately manufactured so they are really only worth the silver value of these coins, and the print on them does not contribute at all to their value.


What is 1906 silver walking liberty on front eagle on back with no denomination value?

Please check your coin again. The Walking Liberty design was first used on half dollars dated 1916-1947, and then again on silver "eagle" bullion coins starting in 1986. Both of these coins have denominations, although the $1 value on the eagle coins is purely artificial. You may have a replica, a fantasy piece, or a privately-manufactured item.


When was the 1873 replica trade dollar printed?

There's no way to know unless you can determine who manufactured it. Replica coins are made by private companies and by law have to display the word COPY somewhere in the design, but they don't have to have a manufacturing date. Also note that coins aren't printed. They're struck or minted. When dealing with money, printing refers only to paper bills.


What is the meaning of mint marks on US coins?

Mint marks are small letters that indicate where a coin was manufactured ("struck"). The mint mark location is often on the backs of coins dated 1964 and earlier - but not always. As of 1968 the position was standardized on the front of all circulating coins.Possible letters are:Blank = Philadelphia, up to 1979 on nickels and higher denomination coins, and all Philadelphia cents.P = Philadelphia, 1980-present on nickels and higher denomination coins, 1979 dollars, and "war nickels" minted during WWIID = Denver, 1906-presentS = San FranciscoW = West Point (bullion coins only, 1980's to the present)O = New Orleans (up to 1909)CC = Carson City (1870-1893)D = Dahlonega, GA (gold coins only, 1838-61)C = Charlotte (gold coins only, 1838-61)
