The Royal Mint Cashback Offers & Discounts

If you are fascinated about how British coins are designed and made, the Royal Mint factory experience will help each visitor unlock 1,100 years of history and learn fascinating facts.

It will take you behind the scenes and allow you to follow the journey of a new coin, such as the new pound coin, from a blank to a bank, ready for circulating, during the guided factory experience, which will be followed by a self-guided interactive exhibition featuring six different zones. You will even have the opportunity to strike your own coin.

Pre-booking to go on the tour is advisable and you can do so on the Royal Mint website. The Royal Mint Experience is open seven days a week throughout the year, although you should check in advance for seasonal changes.
