Learn the rich history of the United States Mint and how we produce billions of coins each year for the American public with a free, guided tour of the Denver facility.
While in Denver, be sure to visit the Mint’s Gift Shop. The Gift Shop is open to the public and offers a great selection of coins and one-of-a-kind souvenirs.
Tour tickets are available from the Tour Information Window on Cherokee Street between Colfax Avenue and West 14th Avenue. It opens at 7 a.m. on Monday through Thursday (excluding observed federal holidays), and will remain open until all tickets have been distributed.
Tickets are for same-day tours only; no advance tickets are available. Tickets will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis and are limited to 5 per person. All visitors must be 7 years and older.
We recommend arriving at the ticket window as early as possible for your best opportunity to obtain tickets, as they run out quickly. Peak season is Memorial Day through Labor Day, but the tours are very popular year round.
The Denver Mint offers up to 6 tours a day with a maximum of 50 people on each tour, with tours lasting approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes. Tours are offered Monday through Thursday (excluding observed federal holidays) at 7:30 a.m., 9 a.m., 10:30 a.m., 12 p.m., 1:30 p.m., and 3 p.m.
There may be days that tours are not available, and tours may be canceled without prior notice. Please be aware that coin production schedules vary. Coins may not be in production during your tour.
