Housed inside the 1869 US Mint building, the Nevada State Museum generally hosts one visiting exhibition to complement its four excellent permanent exhibitions – Carson City Mint, Nevada's Changing Earth, Nevada: A People & Place Through Time and Under One Sky – to tell the story of what is one of America's most unique and independent-minded states.
