About
In approximately 1988, while studying about coins at the American Numismatic Association. I took a trip to the U.S. Mint in Denver, paid a few dollars to "strike" my own coin, and got hooked! The rest, as they say, is history.
Story
Thirty years ago, I paid a few dollars to “mint” my own coin while on a visit to the U.S. Mint in Denver.....the rest, as they say, is history!!!

"My wife Michele and I are the owners and operators of the Alaska Mint. I was 4 years old when my parents moved our family to Alaska from Colorado. They were young and ambitious, my Dad worked as a roughneck on oil platforms until they had saved up enough money to start a small jewelry shop. In 1967, Robuck & Sons, our families first jewelry business was born. Since then our family has had several stores around Alaska. In 1990 after testing with a sidewalk vendors cart for a few summers, I opened a location in downtown Anchorage where we could manufacture and sell souvenir coins, natural gold nuggets, and other gifts.Thirty five years ago, I paid a few dollars to mint my own coin while on a visit to the U.S."

accesible This shop is pretty nice. BEWARE Be careful in this area as there ARE LOTS OF HOMELESS hovering outside the doors. You must ring a doorbell to gain access and they must let you in physically. Not sure if it is because of the type of business this is or a precaution because of stragglers coming into the facility. I came in to get a few Assay Bars of Silver as gifts for this Christmas and I took a few photos for your convenience as well. •Necklaces •Watches •Gold nugget jewelry •Rings •Knives and Ulu's •Coins •ASSAY bars of precious metals THE 2oz. bars of silver that I got were shaped as stars and were 110.00 each.

This is one of my favorite stores in Anchorage. They have a variety of products and I love to go browse there to see what’s new. Their silver and bronze coins make great souvenirs.
Amazing customer Archie - Christopher crafters the most beautiful ring for me and my fiancé!!!
Very impressive collection of unique carvings as well as jewelry. I found their quality and selection to be far superior to the other shops in Anchorage.
Simply the best business in Anchorage for the buying and selling of your jewelry, gold and silver. Chris and Mike are both personable and professional. A big thank you to Chris!
If you're in Anchorage and are looking for a really nice piece of Alaskan gold to take home, this is the place to go! AWESOME display and selection of custom made items! Highly recommended!
I thought this was going to be a tourist trap ripoff place but I was seriously wrong. The staff was very helpful, the prices were similar to the lower 48, and the selection was marvelous
We visited the Alaska Mint a few years ago and I bought a beautiful ring there. Since that time I have bought a medallion and some Christmas ornament medallions , a necklace. A few days ago I bought a ring from them and Mike called to get my ring size. They have always been so nice. Today I received my ring with a gold nugget in it and I absolutely love it. They have things that I can afford all the way up to things I cannot . Everything I have ordered has been wonderful quality and just beautiful!!
Our beloved Alaska Mint is a TOP-shelf, family owned and operated local source of priceless treasures that I give my HIGHEST praises to as a born & raised, lifelong Alaskan. Their customer service is as solid as their gold!
