The New Orleans Mint, located in New Orleans, Louisiana, USA, was a branch of the United States Mint that operated from 1838 to 1909. It played a significant role in the production of gold and silver coins during its years of operation. The mint was established to take advantage of the proximity to large quantities of gold discovered in the southeastern United States and to facilitate commerce in the region. Notably, it produced coins marked with an "O" mintmark, which distinguished its coins from those minted at other facilities.
