Default Re: Engraving coining dies

Hi Steve:
I'm pretty sure you'd have to make that jig yourself... never seen anything like it for sale. That was a pretty good design in the "Numismatic Forgery" book... but not the sort of thing that would sell many units ;-) The leverl could be a spring, and actually the hold-down is not really necessary if you use one hand for the hammer and the other on the trussel to keep it from doubling. I think that design was based on the idea of using a two-handed sledge.
