Lost footage. This was a guy named Ken who produced silver coins once a month at the Carson City Mint building on the same press once used for making silver dollars. Mostly Morgan. They had a speedier process at the time but Ken is fussing since these are limited edition medallions that have been designed to commemorate special events. #coins#mints#silverdollars#carsoncity#nevadatourism#silver#volunteersrock

Just cut a small piece of Kokoweef material collected two weeks ago. This is calcite popcorn. Some dress it up with the fancy name of cave onyx. Can’t wait for my slab saw to attack my much bigger pieces. #sanbernardinocounty #moutainpasscalifrornia#cave#caverns#lapidary#cabs#rocks#geology#minerals
