History

In 1854, the U.S. Mint opened a new branch in San Francisco. Four years prior, a gold deposit at Sutters Mill in the Sierra Nevada Mountain range led to the California Gold Rush. The mint was opened specifically to strike coins from the gold mined there. The San Francisco Mint began striking silver coins as well with the arrival of the Morgan Silver Dollar in 1878.
