What an amazing day
I visited the Royal Mint with my family on Wednesday 2nd, what an amazing day, the tour and Alison our guide was exceptional very informative saw coins rolling off the machines, got to strike our own coin, plenty of time and opportunity to take photos round the exhibition, saw 2012 London Olympic medals that were made there, food in restaurant was beautiful hot and generous with the portions, all covid measures in place felt very safe, worth a visit only 2 hours from Devon where we live.

We were under the impression we would have a coin each to take home but they only let us have 2 and the food was awful.
