What metal would you want to use? How many coins? What size? How complex is the design, black/white or 3D?
Amazing work OgNasty! You are a true Og haha. Your designs are good quality. Thanks for finding this post. Was thinking to start with .999 Ag 3d textured (imprints and thin outprints design) double sided. Had about a $5-15k USD budget in mind for maybe 2 moulds or whatever could be done. I'm on a startup budget, maybe I am dreaming lol. If the facility had a laser type etcher that would be bonus for the pub keys. One limited edition and one for down the road commercial distribution. Not sure the quantities at this time probably low to start.
I studied mech and a bit of metallurgy for a few years during my Eng. undergrad so its right up my alley. But have no contacts in the minting field. Would love to do some rare hard steel alloys like W, or even carbides, but they have very high melt temps so would need a special facility for this. Cut or extrusion +laser is out there but kinda wanted to start with some traditional melts and to keep the initial startup costs down. Are you available for consultation?
