casa de moneda
Casa de Moneda/ Casa de la Moneda/casa de moneda


Explanation:
Si es un nombre propio, según veo que está escrito con las iniciales en mayúscula, se tendría que dejar tal cual, ya que suscitaría mal entendidos o confusiones. Por otro lado, si es un nombre común, sería "mint".

Example sentence(s):
  • The Casa de la Moneda is currently one of the most important repositories used to illustrate the history of the exploitation of minerals...
  • The coins in circulation in the country are made in the mint.
