The Royal Canadian Mint

The Royal Canadian Mint is just near the National Gallery of Canada. Constructed 1905-1908 to house a branch of the British Royal Mint. The main purpose of this building is to produce coins and medals using refinery foe gold produced by Canadian Mines. There are 2 options when you want to go inside: 1. FREE but you can only go to the Boutique or store and buy some unique coins or memorablias. 2. $10 FEE a guided tour about the history of The Canadian Mint and how coins were produced and developed as time goes by. I chose FREE 😂 . #tripblazers #urbanexplorer
