Hi John: Well, we did go through a security check to see the Bell and Independence Hall and the USS Constitution and the U.S. Mint in Philly (which was really interesting to see how our coinage is made—an upper gallery allows you to see the “factory” floor in action, and they do a fantastic job of educational signage to explain the process from absolute start to absolute finish—of course, no photos were allowed)—BUT everyone was really pleasant and worked quickly.
