Primarily used in British and Irish slang to mean loaded — seriously, eye-wateringly wealthy. If someone's minted, they've got more money than they know what to do with. The word conjures images of freshly printed cash, brand new coins straight from the mint, which is exactly where the slang meaning comes from. It's used admiringly, enviously, or sometimes sarcastically depending on context. You might also hear it used more broadly to mean anything that's in great, pristine condition.

Her new boyfriend is absolutely minted — apparently he sold his startup for millions.
Origin: Derived from the literal process of minting coins, the slang sense of 'wealthy' emerged in British English as a natural metaphor for someone who seems to produce money effortlessly. Editorial expansion authored on Slangora.
