NEW at the Donovan Mill Gift Shop! Limited Edition Donovan Mill Commemorative Coins are here!

One of the questions we've heard most often from visitors touring the Historic Donovan Mill over the last two years has been, "Do you have a commemorative coin?"

It's something we've talked about for quite a while. In the early stages of preserving the mill, our focus was on the big jobs—stabilizing structures, restoring machinery, and tackling the countless construction and mechanical projects needed to bring this incredible site back to life. A commemorative coin seemed like something for "someday."

Well, someday has arrived.

After the tremendous progress made over the winter and seeing how far the Donovan Mill has come, we're excited to announce the release of our new Donovan Mill Commemorative Coin!

Beginning June 9, 2026 during Run Day, these limited-edition coins will be available in the Donovan Mill Gift Shop for $20 each. The design celebrates the rich history of the mill site, from the Kelsey Mill and Dazet Mill eras through Jackson & Phillips and the Donovan Mill itself.

Whether you're joining us for your first tour or you've visited before, we invite you to stop by and pick one up. It's a unique keepsake that commemorates not only the history of the mill, but also the ongoing preservation efforts that continue because of supporters like you.

Thanks Lee Brunell for letting us know about this.

All proceeds help support the Comstock Foundation for History & Culture and the preservation of the Historic Donovan Mill.

We hope to see you on June 9, 2026 or very soon!
