British Royal Mint
In 1279, the many mints of Britain were united under a single system whereby the mint was controlled, empowered to produce or mint coins in the United Kingdom.
In addition to minting coins for the United Kingdom, it also mints coins for many other countries, as well as military and commemorative medals, making it one of the most important mints around the world.
The house began moving part of its operations from Tower Hill, near the Tower of London, to Llandrissant in South Wales in 1968, before relocating completely in 1980.
The current home houses a collection of coins dating from the 16th century to the present day, housed in 8 cabinets ordered by the late Queen Elizabeth II and employing 765 staff.
Since 2010 it has been a limited company contracted to the Treasury for the distribution of all United Kingdom coins.
