Found a genuine 1945 peace Dollar

Genuine coin altered date!
Back in the 70s and 80s My dad was acoin cutter.
He figured out how to add custom names and dates.

    Nice work with very fine detailing. But they appear like they would be very delicate to loosing the centers

    Coin cutting is still popular... I see booths with these at craft/theme shows....Some years back there was a member here who did this... and he told me that he used drills and a very fine saw blade (fully rounded with cutting edges). Now I would think there are those using either lasers or water jet...Cheers, RickO

    The saw he used was called a jewelry saw and the blade only had teeth on one side.
