Doyle’s Mint

Doyle’s Mint has always been a highly popular old refiner among collectors. Not a lot of information available, but believed to be out of Southern California circa 70’s-early 80s. The iconic Lion hallmark is one of the more distinguished hallmarks you will come across. They don’t come up often and when they do, they get snapped up quickly. They came in 5, 10 and 25 oz variety. Here are a few examples of Doyle’s Mint pieces from my collection.

These hallmarks are particularly strong. Many of the pieces have lost the definition of the Lion with age and wear.

And here is a 25 oz example from Brian R’s collection.

Even 25 oz. Many in this class are odd weights.
