What you'll discover
In our magical forest themed Gift Shop, you can find all of our coins, jewelry, and wax seals plus a wide assortment of gifts from other Arkansas small businesses. In the corner of our gift shop, open the correct door and discover a nook of Goop World complete with Kaida the Creature, a gentle giant. The space was brought into our Earthly realm by West Fork native Natalia Franco.
Head upstairs for a bird's eye view of our workshop and to explore our free Mini Museum featuring history of Shire Post Mint and explanation of how we make our coins. Unfortunately, this upstairs space is not wheelchair accessible.
Tours of our workshop may be available to schedule, recommended for groups of 10+ or individuals unable to use stairs. Contact us to discuss availability. We are an active manufacturing workshop so we cannot promise availability for tours.
Our grounds are a Certified Wildlife Habitat that feature rain gardens and plants curated by Biodesic Strategies to help support our local watershed, community, and wildlife.
