Descripción

People who specialize in creating engraved designs for coins. Historically, coin engravers were guild members who created coins in mints. The coin engraver creates dies for coins that incorporate engraving on the face of the die, distinguished from dies created from punches that displace the metal of the die instead of removing it.
