[QUOTE="dcarr, post: 2655822, member: 4781"]The [I]reality[/I] is, talent resides in the brain, not the hands (which are controlled by the brain). I produce things the same way most modern mints do - sculpting digitally and engraving on a computer-controlled machine via [digital] reduction. Unlike other mints, However, I use a digital sculpting program that I wrote myself because I wanted certain features. No other engraver or mint has done that. That is how I made the carved "hobo" nickel I showed earlier. It isn't a secret - you already knew this. If you don't like it, or don't like things made via computer, then you should ditch that Mercedes because it was made using computers. Instead, you should get a horse-drawn buggy or something like that. The "more information" that I was waiting for was not from the Treasury Department. It was from the group of numismatists who observed in the Philadelphia Mint archives the 1964 Morgan master hubs.
