What exactly do you want for the paper?

Russell Kanning

Something that is interesting to normal people. :)

Have you chosen a die supplier yet?  Did you find a source for the correct size and shape of specie?

Us, and us. Next question?
When can I get some?   :)

Kat Kanning

Well, first you find a willing lady....

Our target date is Porcfest, but I can't guarantee that. I can put you on the list, though. PM me with what and how much you want and we can contact you directly when they're ready for purchase.

Your target is porcfest for dies and blanks?  Or pressed coins?

Die + Blank = Product

Might need a press and de-bug of process and re-work of dies, annealing and cleaning of blank. I've heard "All you gotta do is..." a lot from non-practicing (wannabe manufacturing engineers) spectators before. That's not "all you gotta do"... but it'll be good to see it get started anywho. Would it were all you gotta do is throw the dies and blanks in a box and shake 'em up and you get coins!

Is there a ball park price range? So I know how much to sock away?

I recommend a demonstration to remove fears about efficacy. It would make a fun event at Porcfest.

That has always been part of the plan, if it can be done. (It should be doable, but you never know)
