Where does money get made?

Answer 1

Coins are produced in factories called "mints". Most larger countries operate one or more mints to strike their coins, while smaller countries may contract with Another Country's mint.

Many countries operate their own printing facilities for paper money, but sometimes they have arrangements with companies to produce the bills instead of operating their own plants. For example American paper money is printed by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing which is an arm of the Treasury Department, while the Bank of Canada uses 2 private companies to print its bills.
