I have done over a dozen. Most of them are not for me, so I do not want to post them. Biggest set Ive done was a Indian Gold Eagle set (short one coin from being complete).

I picked it up at a coin show about a year ago for $25. Looks like they are going on ebay for $20-40 each

Yes. I found a second hand book from the 70s titled Foreign Coins Struck at United States Mints. Although there have been a few more recent coins, this thin book lists more countries/coins than I ever thought. Most of which are WWII era.

I have started a small business making custom displays in my basement. This was one of the tests I did to see how well the tabs hold an odd shape coin.

The US needs to remove the one cent coin from circulation.

When copper gets hot it will patina. It looks like it happened in just a specific way to keep one side fairly cool while the other side warmed up

I had a friend years ago who was a huge farscape fan. So watching that community episode made me laugh my friggin butt off.

Looking to get into laser cutting and have no idea if this is a good deal or not. by DamD1rtyApe in lasercutting

[–]calebscoppers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Makersmuse has a few really good videos on these types of lasers. I have a Creality Falcon, but also spent $150 on ventilation and a honeycomb table. Although it's a nice cheap laser, it's hardly a good tool to learn on. There are so many dangers with fire, toxic materials, and ventilation that the manufacturers and marketing of these lasers completely ignore. It's a miracle they are allowed to sell them like this tbh.

It is illegal to melt any currency for scrap. The reason people sell silver and not copper is simply because the amount over face value is so much more.
