<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dcarr, post: 2208422, member: 4781&quot;]Traditionally, fantasy-date over-strikes comprise about 25% of my minting. The other 75% is either completely original work, or a partial derivation of some pre-existing design (such as a coin club medal which has a known coin icon as a part of the overall design). When I do utilize an existing coin design, it is always one that is public domain and not copyrighted.</p><p><br /></p><p>But the fantasy-date over-strikes are definitely popular. The fact is, people really want them. I get emails all the time from people suggesting which ones I should do, and when the next one will be available. At least once a week I have someone ask me if I have any &quot;1964-D&quot; Peace Dollar over-strikes available (those were minted in, and sold out in, 2010).</p><p><br /></p><p>And as a coin collector myself, I have a lot of fun making the fantasy-date over-strikes.</p><p><br /></p><p>PS:</p><p>I&#039;m currently preparing to exhibit at a major sculpture show, and I&#039;m working on several original designs for that.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
