Money Minters (French: Les Monnayeurs) is a Canadian short documentary film, directed by Ted De Wit and released in 1958.[1] Sponsored by INCO and the Royal Canadian Mint, the film documents the process of making a coin from the initial mining of metal ore at Sudbury to the coin's final production at the Royal Canadian Mint.[2]

The film was one of three co-winners, alongside The Quest and The Tall Country, of the Canadian Film Award for Best Theatrical Short Film at the 11th Canadian Film Awards in 1959.[3]
