You may reveal a Treasure card from your hand. Gain a copy of it. When you gain this, trash all non-Duration Treasures you have in play. |
Mint is an Action card from Prosperity. When played, it lets you gain a copy of a Treasure card that you have in your hand; when gained, it forces you to trash all non-Duration Treasures that were in play when you gained it. Gaining a Mint can therefore be effective for clearing out early Coppers.

FAQ
Official FAQ
- When you gain this, you trash all of your non-Duration Treasure cards from play (but not ones in your hand or elsewhere). (Duration cards are in other expansions, such as Seaside).
- This doesn't cause you to lose the you made from those cards this turn.
- Remember that you don't have to play all of the Treasures from your hand each turn, just the ones you want to play, and you can't play more Treasures after buying cards.
- If you gain this in your Action phase, such as with Artisan, you will usually not have any Treasures in play to trash.
- When you play this, you may reveal a Treasure from your hand to gain a copy of it from the Supply, putting the gained card into your discard pile.
- The revealed card stays in your hand and can still be played that turn.
- If you gain a Mint with Tiara in play, you can put the Mint on your deck, regardless of whether you trash the Tiara before or afterwards.
Other rules clarifications
- If you have Capitalism, Mint can both gain and trash Action-Treasures.
- If you played some Coppers, but trashed them all with Mint, that means you're allowed to buy a Grand Market.
- If you first gain Mandarin and top-deck all your Treasures, gaining Mint won't trash any Treasures.
- Mint can only gain copies from the Supply, so it can't gain copies of Spoils, Heirlooms, or Treasures from the Black Market deck.

Strategy
Mint is a terminal Treasure gainer with a relatively important on-gain thinning effect. If the Kingdom offers more convenient ways to trash your Coppers, Mint is likely to be skippable; however, it can be a serviceable way to achieve thinning, especially if strong Treasures are present so that you have further use for the Mint after buying it.
Mint's trashing effect provides a way to get rid of your starting Coppers and is most likely to be relevant for this purpose if there are no good alternatives, such as Counterfeit. Because Mint trashes all of your Treasures in play when gained, it is at its best thinning when you can get as many Coppers into play as possible, although you will have to weigh this against trying to thin as early as possible. In the simplest case, you can use five Coppers to buy Mint and trash them all; a Mint trash is also sometimes worthwhile even if you can only get four Coppers into play (supplementing the using another source such as a Peddler variant or a Silver), but only rarely with less than that. This is due both to the opportunity cost of not buying another card and the fact that Mint itself is a stop card—if you add it to your deck while only trashing three Coppers, you’ve only effectively thinned two cards. Occasionally, you can trash more than five Coppers, which sometimes makes it worthwhile to delay Mint until you can draw a big hand. Ways to spike a larger hand size before achieving deck control, such as Expedition, can help enable this sooner.
Trashing a large number of Coppers with Mint drastically thins your deck and greatly helps you with deck control, but because it can remove a large portion of your payload, it can be important to have a way to restore this to be able to afford price points and continue building. An extreme case is opening with Mint when you have a / split, which might cripple you as you are unable to buy anything costing more than . Potentially useful effects include ways to transform the Mint itself into payload, such as with Advance or Way of the Butterfly, and cheap ways to add payload, such as with Delve or Alms. Fool's Gold synergizes doubly with Mint: not only is it a cheap payload option that you can copy with Mint to gain in bulk, it also greatly benefits from the immediate, heavy thinning. Page is a similarly good option: Treasure Hunter can restore your payload in the short term, Hero can provide good targets for Mint later, and in the meantime the thinning helps you advance your Travellers quickly. An early Mint can also synergize with trash-for-benefit effects such as Remodel, both to trash the Mint and your Estates.
It is somewhat uncommon to use Mint extensively as a Treasure gainer, although it may be reasonable to do so if it's the best or only way to ramp up your payload and/or you already have it in deck as a result of thinning. Mint's attractiveness as a gainer further depends on the desirability of the available Treasures: for example, it may be very useful if the alternative payload is particularly weak, if a strong target like Crown or Platinum is present, or if Capitalism allows you to Mint useful Action cards. Since Treasures are generally stop cards, like Mint itself, it's usually best to Mint more of them only once you have strong deck control, and note that you’ll likely need to add draw to keep pace with your Treasures. It may also be useful to gain Treasures primarily as targets for trash-for-benefit effects; in these cases, the need to keep adding more draw is less pronounced, since you can maintain deck control by trashing Treasures at the same rate that you gain new copies.
