Re: Engraving coining dies
Woody's die work is impressive. Using the pantograph for metal removal and then finishing up with punches is one of the ways Steve Adams showed me to make dies, although I found that I have better results with the slower cutting and scraping method. Attached are pics of three dies I just completed for the 150th anniversary of the nickel, and strikes over current nickels. Mostly mill work, just a little hand finishing work.
