    First time I've ever seen a coin press design. I've seen designs depicting the minting process, but never devoted entirely to the press itself. image

    For those that don't know, that is Press #1 from the old Carson City Mint. It's been around a few
    years, 'eh?

    Neat token with the old wood burning engine next to the Mint building as it was in the old days! Not
    parked there anymore.

    Cool photo! I have seen similar press machines at shows over the years, but I've never been to the CC. Neat thanks for sharing Bob!
