<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Collect89, post: 1508777, member: 15445&quot;]My friend gave me a set of these embossed pop-out coins which I plan to sell.&nbsp; They have an appearance of being stamped from the back through to the front.&nbsp;&nbsp; They are called “repousse” and according to past Internet sales, they can get quite pricey.&nbsp; They were made using a host coin which was struck by a set of very high relief dies so the obverse would have the desired face &quot;popping out&quot;.&nbsp; I got a copy of the original US patent describing the patented process.&nbsp; The patent was issued 100 years ago but my new repousse coins were apparently made about 50 years ago.&nbsp; In addition to the Liberty face shown in these photos, I also have Lincoln’s head and a couple others in the batch.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
