The Italian Istituto Poligrafico e Zecca dello Stato (IPZS) (State Mint and Polygraphic Institute), founded in 1928, is situated at the via Salaria 691 in Rome. As well as producing coins, passports, and postage stamps for Italy, it serves the micro-states of the Vatican City, San Marino, and the Sovereign Military Order of Malta. It also publishes books under the imprintLibreria dello Stato.[2] The O.C.V. (Officina Carte Valori) and traditional productions factory, the multimedial production institute and the Mint are also located in the capital. Other factories are located in Verrès,[3]Val d'Aosta, and Foggia, Apulia. Banknotes are produced by the Bank of Italy.
On 27 December 1911, the Italian mint was officially inaugurated by king Victor Emmanuel III in the seat located in via Principe Umberto, on the Esquiline. But in 1907, Victor Emmanuel founded the Scuola dell'Arte della Medaglia (SAM) ('School of the Art of Medalmaking') in the old location of the mint. The school trained new artists about carving and modelling techniques and its attendants would later manufacture real coins: it is still nowadays a unique example in the world of didactic and creative formation inside a mint.[4]
In 1928, the Istituto Poligrafico dello Stato ('State Polygraphic Institute') was established and in 1978 acquired the mint section, under president Rosario Lanza, becoming the Istituto Poligrafico e Zecca dello Stato.[5]
In 1982, it became the first mint to manufacture Bi-metallic coins through a patented process.[6]
Since October 2002, the IPSZ is a società per azioni with the Italian Ministry of Economy and Finance as sole shareholder.
