All 2009 + Ameros will be stamped by a coin
press that was actually used in the U.S. Denver
Mint from 1986 to 2001. Moonlight Mint, a private
facility built by Amero coin minter Daniel Carr
acquired this surplus Denver Mint coin press in
early 2007 and completed the restoration of it in
late 2008. Traditionally, all Ameros have had a
symbolic "D" mint mark. All Ameros will now be
struck on a Denver Mint coin press, the "D" takes
on additional meaning. Note that the 2008 100-Amero
(1/10th oz gold) coins were also struck on this
Denver coin press. So anyone who purchased those
coins can now rightfully claim that it was stamped
by a (former) U.S. government coin press.
