The West Point Mint in New York strikes thousands of coins every year, though you’ve probably never seen the ‘W’ mintmark on any of your coins.
So what coins does the West Point Mint make?
- Bullion coinage
- Commemorative coins
- Certain gold medals
The West Point Mint also made millions of Lincoln cents during the 1970s and early 1980s and a special 1996-W Roosevelt dime marking the 50th anniversary of the design.

My love for coins and numismatics began when I was 11 years old. I primarily collect and study U.S. coins produced during the 20th century. I've also been studying meteorology and watching weather patterns for years. I enjoy sharing little-known facts and fun stuff about coins, weather, travel, health, and living green with others.
