Minting process
Treated to look as if it has been handled and circulated, this process is done by hand, and it is both an art and a science, coloring and patinas will vary. No two sets are exactly the same.
Coins are struck one at a time in the USA using antique machinery and traditional coining techniques. A colorful description is included with history and facts about the coin.
Specifications:
- Solid brass, .900 silver and .999 silver,
- 2 to 2.9 cm diameter
