My Trip To The Royal Mint Experience - Llantrisant, Wales. Visit on the 19th of October 2025.
Guided tour - Unfortunately, in the main section you can't take photos or videos. But would very highly recommend you visit and go on the tour as it was an incredible experience! On the tour your guide takes you onto the floor of where they produce the coins and you learn about how they are made. After your guided tour, you can explore an area of the history behind The Royal Mint at your own pace.
Gromit the dog from Wallace and Gromit, made out of 1p coins.
A portrait of Queen Elizabeth II made from an assortment of coins, including 1p, 5p, and 50p.
Penny Lane classic mini covered in 1000s of pre 1968 pennies that are no longer legal tender.
Photo with a fortune - £880,000 £1 uncirculated coins filling 8 glass crates, each crate contained £11,000. WOW that a lot of money!
These four are in the reception as you walk into the experience.
I had the opportunity to strike my own exclusive, brilliant, uncirculated 2025 50p coin, which marked 90 years of MONOPOLY at this time. The Royal Mint experiences changes in what coins are struck over time. This was also an extra cost, but it was a great personal souvenir of visiting and attending the guided tour.
