[ATTACH] Looks like you got her when she was just a puppy (from the B&W photo)? There are really no words to say to someone who loses a pet. You...
Thank you for both videos, especially the second one. Thanks for taking the time.
Thank you. I'm going to write to the Mint to see if they have diagrams and if there's such a thing as a backstage pass (fingers crossed). I'd like...
Oh, I see. Thanks. I thought it was a Privy Mark because I went to check 2 old ones that I have (from a hand-me-down collection) and they don't...
Is that a privy mark (beneath the Queen) to note the anniversary?
I enjoyed looking at the album. Is each coin's image loaded separately? (Because each one looks so good.) Do you know if the ones with the Queen...
Pardon my ignorance - why? Anniversary?
OMG. The reverse "LIBE" look raised! Hahahaha. Lighting anomalies!
Hi. Thanks for this full image. Looking at your photos, I must admit I was stumped a bit. But I have something to contribute if I may. First,...
I know why! That's when Poh became the Dragon Warrior and learned three things from Master Shifu and his adopted father: (1) There are no...

Thanks very much! Appreciate the thorough (as always) explanation. Now I just need a backstage pass to the Mint to see it in real life.
I hope so. Thanks. If spatial constraints can't accommodate photography, I'd settle for diagrams. That'll work too. I know that the machine that...
Thanks all for the videos, I'll check them out. I'm mainly interested to see how the dies are held when the planchets are struck and how collars...
Yeah, I thought about that too. Not just regarding secrecy purposes, but maybe the space is too tight to get a camera in there. In such a case,...
I really wanted to see how the dies are held, how the planchets come in to be struck, the actual striking, and how the collars fit into it all.
Thanks Sal, yeah, I've seen this before. It doesn't show me what I want to see. Thanks anyway. Appreciate it.
Hi everyone. I’ve got a question regarding the striking of coins. While I know what dies look like, I’ve never seen the striking process. Sure,...
Ok. It'll be nice - surely - to have a Close AM.
Your FG is close to the building. But once I learned the short-cut way, I don't even look at the initials anymore. Saves me time and eye strain!...
