<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Tom Maringer, post: 2869724, member: 7033&quot;]I got mine back in 2001, while it was still in print. I think it was $80 at the time. It is still the best book extant on explaining some of the processes and is a precious resource here at the mint. We frequently refer to things like: &quot;Well, Cooper on page 163 suggests a 146 degree angle for a hobbing cone...&quot; (btw, the 146 degree angle is ideal for most die-work, though after experimentation we sometimes use a steeper or shallower angle depending on the depth of relief needed) I made a request to the publisher to reprint (no reply) and then made a formal request for permission to scan (no reply). I think it would be worthwhile scanning and converting to pdf simply to make the information accessible to more people. By the way, even if your library does not own a copy, you can always request one through interlibrary loan! Often the librarians will not offer that to you (because it&#039;s extra work for them) but if you request it, they will get a copy in for you.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
