 Historical United States Mints - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
Although the mint officially opened in 1792, no regular issue coins were struck until 1793.
Commemorative coins bear the W mint mark; circulating coins are indistinguishable from coinage struck in Philadelphia.
Between 1965-1967 all coins were struck without mint marks, in the belief that a coin shortage was due to zealous coin collectors.

 botanical.com - A Modern Herbal | Mints - Herb Profile and Information
Mint is mentioned in all early mediaeval lists of plants; it was very early grown in English gardens, and was certainly cultivated in the Convent gardens of the ninth century.
Of the members of the mint family under cultivation the most important are the several varieties of the Peppermint (Mentha piperita), extensively cultivated for years as the source of the well-known volatile oil of Peppermint, used as a flavouring and therapeutic agent.
The United States, however, are now the most important producers of Peppermint oil, producing - mostly in Michigan, where its cultivation was introduced in 1855, Indiana, the western districts of New York State, and to a smaller extent in Ohio - rather under half of the world's total output of the oil.

 Mints
This common garden mint is not a native of these islands, though growing freely in every garden, but is originally a native of the Mediterranean region, and was introduced into Britain by the Romans, being largely cultivated not only by them, but also by the other Mediterranean nations.
In the fourteenth century, mint was used for whitening the teeth, and its distilled oil is still used to flavour tooth-pastes, etc., and in America, especially, to flavour confectionery, chewing gums, and also to perfume soap.
Often mint is so grown both upon and under the benches in greenhouses, and the demand for the young, tender stems and leaves during the winter is sufficient to make the plants pay well.

The U.S. Mint, which makes all U.S. coins, was established by Congress in 1792 and became an operating bureau of the Treasury Department in 1873.
Coins minted in Philadelphia bear a P or no mint mark; those minted in Denver, a D; in San Francisco, an S; and in West Point, a W. Although the Coinage Act of 1965 specified that no mint marks would be used for five years, Congress authorized in late 1967 that mint marks be resumed.
Each year from 1999 through 2008, coins commemorating five states, with designs created by the states, will be issued in the order in which the states signed the Constitution or joined the Union.

Minted for just 10 weeks each, these quarter dollars have been much sought after.
The Quarter Dollars of the Fifty States are being struck at both the Philadelphia and Denver Mints.
But since every coin may not be released for circulation in every state, many collectors are concerned about the odds against anyone collecting a complete set of all 100 of these historic quarter dollars, especially since the last circulating U.S. commemoratives -- the 1976 Bicentennial coins -- are seldom found in circulation today.
