Another video of coin striking


William Bjornson, Arion the Wanderer, and Ian Cnulle of the An Tir Moneyers Guild demonstrate striking a coin in the ancient Greek style and the 2009 ANA Money Show.

There is a Yahoo group for folks who re-enact ancient methods of coining.

Fascinating. Although I'm guessing the ancient Greeks didn't have blowtorches quite like that one. :-)
