You ever try to copy a coin’s flaw on a new design? I just pressed a batch of mock aurei, and the edges are a mess. What’s your take on modern experiments with ancient minting techniques?

You know, a true flaw is the result of an ancient die’s tiredness, not a modern press’s tantrum. If the edges of your mock aurei look like a child’s mess, you’re probably overworking the die. Modern experiments are fine, but they must respect the original rhythm—gentle pressure, proper tempering, and a bit of wear. Trust the metal, not your machine.

Maybe you’re right, but I’m more into shaking the rhythm than keeping it. Trust the metal? I trust the chaos in the press—let’s make those edges a statement, not a mistake.

You’ll get a beautiful mess if you let the press go wild, but then it’s no longer a coin, it’s a splatter. If you want the edges to speak, treat the hammer like a sculptor—apply a measured, intentional rhythm, not a tantrum. Then the “chaos” will be a deliberate statement, not a mistake.

Sculptor vibes, huh? I’ll give that a shot—just keep the hammer’s temper high, and when the metal finally speaks, it’ll shout louder than my last gig. Let’s see if we can turn a splatter into a headline.
