Default Re: Engraving coining dies

Excellent work, Tom. What method did you use for making the dies? I don't suppose you have a Janvier hidden away in your shop, do you? This weekend I'm heading to Colorado Springs to the A.N.A. summer seminar for the Art of Engraving class. This year we will be hand cutting a 3/4 inch die and striking pewter tokens. This is a one week class over two summers and is fully funded by the Gilroy Roberts (former chief engraver of the U.S. mint) foundation. Great fun, everyone should apply for next year's class.
