You could perhaps take a look at the line of Schuler minting equipment, to see if anything matches what you are looking for:...
Watch the video here for a demonstration:...
No, not exactly. And, remember this changed many times over the years. With early US coinage, the engraver made a die. Each letter was its own...
NGC doesn't actually have direct access to the PCGS census (for monetary reasons, I'm sure....). Every PCGS coin added to the NGC Registry has a...
