Proof of the United States Mint at Denver’s progress in coin production is in the numbers. During the entire year of 1906, the facility produced about 167 million gold and silver coins valued at $27 million. Today, the United States Mint at Denver strikes nearly that many coins in a week, or about 30 million coins a day. That adds up to nearly eight billion coins per year (cents, nickels, dimes, quarters, half- dollars and Golden Dollars). This year will be historic because it will include production of the Colorado commemorative quarter-dollar coin, part of the 50 State Quarters Program.

Denver emerged as a lively sports town and entertainment metropolis, attracting gaggles of tourists that never seemed to leave. They simply came to visit, fell in love with the mountain setting and prosperous city energy, and set up camp. In 1993, over 30,000 inhabitants of California flooded the Front Range, sending the population over two million and creating growth issues as rapid development took up former open space to house the new arrivals. This is widely known as the California immigration. New high-tech computer and telecommunication businesses ... sought refuge in Denver's endless sunshine.

The Denver branch began life in 1863 as the local assay office, just five years after gold was discovered in the area. By the turn of the century, the office was bringing in over $5 million in annual gold and silver deposits, and in 1906, the Mint opened its new Denver branch. Denver uses a D mint mark and strikes coinage only for circulation, although it did strike along with three other mints the $10 gold 1984 Los Angeles Olympic Commemorative. It ... produces its own working dies, as well as working dies for the other Mints.
