before coin photography became viable at home people would make foil pressing of their coins to share with other collectors. here are some pressings that I have in my collection.

That's very neat, CarrsCoins! I had forgotten all about it, but your post brought back memories of me doing foil pressings of some of my coins well over 50 years ago.

Didn't know about the foin pressing. That is very cool... And I wasn't thinking it had to be metal. A larger plastic stamped replica version would do the trick just as well I think.
