<p>[QUOTE=&quot;YOC, post: 1897082, member: 58941&quot;]I will photograph an example.&nbsp; I spoke to a DT dept at a school I have a contract with, they agreed to photograph a coin of mine and do a test &#039;burn&#039; on some wood...it would be a great present idea for someone with a favourite coin they own, photograph it and burn the enlarged image onto a coaster or small wooden plaque. The burn works on the degrees of shading, so a good side lit photo would work well.&nbsp; i saw a burn they did on some clear perspex of a photograph of Sherborne Abbey...it was unbelievably good.&nbsp; A guy they know has made his own laser cutter/etcher with same software and guts, but more powerful lasers for cutting metal. Once cut and buffed down, I bet most would be fooled.&nbsp; dies could be made easilt too and then used to strike blank worn sestertius ........ I think the hobby could be in turmoil in a few years, but I hope we can find ways to keep our authentic coins apart from the fakes.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
