Thirty years ago, I paid a few dollars to “mint” my own coin while on a visit to the U.S. Mint in Denver.....the rest, as they say, is history!!! At the Alaska Mint, we offer high quality, Alaskan made items at reasonable prices. Stop by our store and watch our artisans at work creating unique items that will be treasured for years to come. The pure silver and gold coins that we design and mint are highly desirable collectors items that our customers have been enjoying for over 25 years. We buy raw gold from the miners all over Alaska, and make some of it into stunning pieces of jewelry. We specialize in vintage estate jewelry from our customers here in Alaska, and we have a great selection of locally made handmade knives and Ulus.
