About the Royal Mint:

The Royal Mint is the facility permitted to manufacture the coins of Great Britain. It produces both the country’s bullion and circulating coinage. The Royal Mint, in addition to issuing currency for the United Kingdom, also mints coinage and medals for other countries. The institution, amazingly, traces its roots back to the year 886 with the establishment of the London Mint. It has survived countless wars and changes in British rule. Famously, Sir Isaac Newton served as the Warden of the Mint in the 1700s.
