1835 CE

President Andrew Jackson signs into legislation the authorization to create branches of the US Mint in order for the government to retain control of the production of currency and keep a stabilized economic structure.

Large amounts of gold are being discovered at the Reed Gold Mine and in other mines in the United States, and the mine owners have begun to use their gold to create currency.

The first of these branch mints are the Charlotte, North Carolina (1838–1861), Dahlonega, Georgia (1838–1861), and New Orleans, Louisiana (1838–1909) branches.
