<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mlov43, post: 3221656, member: 16729&quot;]One book that I found at my local University Library that helped me understand how coins were made is entitled, </p><p><font size="4"><u>The Art and Craft of Coin Making: A history of Minting Technology</u> by Denis R. Cooper, published in Britain in 1988.</font></p><p><font size="4"><br /></font></p><p><font size="4">Even bad copies of this book will cost you $350+, because this text was only published once, and no new editions exist.&nbsp; Bummer.</font></p><p><font size="4"><br /></font></p><p><font size="4">Probably one of the most influential books on coins that I have yet read (influential to me), if you are into the &quot;manufacturing process&quot; behind coins, like I am.&nbsp; This book answers almost all of your questions, with the exception of how coins are made in 2018.&nbsp; Coins are designed, engraved and minted VERY differently nowadays from the &quot;old&quot; methods described in Cooper&#039;s book.</font></p><p><font size="4">[ATTACH=full]838874[/ATTACH] </font>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
