Neat token struck thru wire.

Now you've got me wondering whether I could trick one of those "souvenir cent squashers" into pressing wire into a coin...

 

Not just wire, but braided copper wire. Incredibly interesting piece, @Insider.

Please share, what do you know about this piece? The style appears to be antiquated, but due to the issuer I wouldn't be surprised to hear that it was designed to appear older than it actually is.

I'm assuming it is the ANA program, and not some die-engraving class in Florence, Italy.

 

Evan Saltis, asked: "Please share, what do you know about this piece?"

It was made for my teaching set.

 

The Florence School School Of Numismatics... A little redundant but okay

Kind of hard to see the K with the wire.

Ah I see it now... how embarrassing

 

Very neat
