Alaska Mint

Alaska Mint began as a jewelry store in Anchorage, Alaska, in the 1970s.  In addition to jewelry, it produces a wide variety of 1 Oz silver rounds with themes centered around Alaska. Originally, the artwork was created, and the medallions were manufactured outside of Alaska. In 1990, equipment to mint silver and gold medallions was purchased and assembled, allowing medallions to be minted onsite at the facility in Anchorage. From 1990 to 1992, the mint was known as The Anchorage Mint but was renamed as Alaska Mint in 1993.

After starting with a single coin design, demand prompted the creation of new designs and related products. Today, designs are drawn; dies are cut, polished, and heat-treated; and the medallions are all struck in downtown Anchorage. The medallions are detailed reproductions of original sculptures, and many are highly collectible with mintages of only 40 to 50 coins per year.
