Most people are familiar more with the classic style ones but the modern ones have taken it to another level.

I wonder if you could program a CNC machine to do these?

I just picked this one up a couple weeks ago. I believe it's an original.

@coinfrog, think of it as a Janvier Reduction Lathe but with a computerized design instead of a galvano/model. The mint makes all their masters with CNC now. I imagine you could churn out hobo nickels using it.
