Interesting video guy makes gold coins at home

I found this video interesting! This gentleman has his own mint in his basement. He seems to make good quality bullion coins! Calls himself Jeweler Dave http://www.youtube.com/user/jewelerdave#p/a/u/1/8yQR9MMYofQ

Interesting! That Dave is not related to Daniel Carr by any chance?

Will you tell him to send me some

 

Awesome post! Would have loved to rebuild that press, especially the electric!

 

Yeah, my thoughts exactly!! Denver mint press and all...

Yes that's one and the same and my guess is the guy named jeweler Dave is the jeweler who sells gold planchets to Daniel Carr. Just a guess but I bet I'm right.

 

thats pretty sweet

 

Wow that's crazy. Are there any pro's/Con's to doing this at home? I'm sure the equipment is pretty expensive and loud.

 

Pretty cool... you should also check out his "Amero" video over stamping Maples... doesn't show American Eagles. Probably didn't want the potential hassle for defacing US "currency".

 

For some information about the equipment you could use, scroll to near the bottom of http://www.shirepost.com/Coinage.html. In general, there are good deals on machine tools that were made obsolete by CNC.
