Miniature Silver and Copper Coins

avatar

I have another set of miniature replica coins to show you. These are genuine 999 Fine Silver and copper replica coins.




They came especially packaged from the Shire Post Mint.

Tom Maringer purchased his first antique coin press in 2001, which marked the start of Shire Post Mint. Since he was young, he has been passionate about collecting coins, and the years he spent making knives equipped him with the metallurgical skills he needed to begin producing coins. The methods employed in the 1800s and earlier are still the same for manually engraving steel dies and pressing them one at a time.


Shire Post Mint has developed into a internationally renowned business with a reputation for fine craftsmanship and attention to detail.


Above is a replica of the $20 gold piece sculpted by Augustus St.Gaudens in solid 999 Fine Silver. It is 1/4 inch in diameter.

And below is a replica of the $20 gold piece sculpted by Augustus St.Gaudens in solid copper, also quarter of an inch.




Shire Post Mint uses hand-engraved steel dies that have been hardened and mounted in vintage coin presses. They design the coins into solid metals, in this case, 999 fine silver and solid copper. They engrave, strike, finish, package, and ship the coins from their workshop in West Fork, Arkansas.

Neat!

In case you are interested, I showed my Miniature HGE Gold bullion here. Until tomorrow, I wish you all the best!

Copper is not considered a precious metal. Although copper has often been used in circulating coinage, it is not considered to be a precious metal like Gold and Silver. Copper is instead classified as base metal or industrial metal. Building construction is the single largest market for copper and it is one of the most widely used metals in the electrical industry.
You are cool too, @gwajnberg , and I appreciate you!

Cool tiny coin replicas! They are most certainly tiny! I guess with a name like Shire mint it's expected to be small! I haven't been to Arkansas since 2005, I wonder where West Fork is? I'll have to look at the map!

I haven't been to Arkansas ever, hehehe! Gosh, I better be a local tourist before time runs out! It's embarrassing to have visited places abroad and not the US!
Yeah, these are cool and such fun stuff!

There's a state park in Arkansas that is a diamond mine. You pay an entry fee and any diamonds you find you keep! I found a yellow one about two carats once, quality wasn't great. Some people find five or six carat stones that are very high quality. It's a lot of luck more than anything!

You never find anything if you don't look! I took locums position for a month down there and on the weekends I went to the park to search for diamonds!

Wow that’s very impressive @silversaver888 !🤗
Do these come numbered, I would be curious how many coins he can strike with one hand engrave die!

Unfortunately, they aren't numbered, but they do have numbered pieces. And they do limited stuff. I think when I have the time, I'll look through their inventory. They had a Zodiac Leo Moon silver round.

It's out of an admiration and appreciation of old manuscripts and sea charts that I took the time to develop my own writing style.

Today we are seeing an increase in the price of silver, so it is good for those who have been holding it.
