Why are coin mints called mints?
The term 'mints' in the context of coin production likely originated from the historical association of minting coins with places where mint, a fragrant herb, was grown. Over time, 'mints' became synonymous with facilities that produce coins, due to the similarity in the process of stamping out coins and the earlier practice of pressing mint leaves for their oil or scent.
