What I meant was - they should do it the way they do the proof Presidential dollars. Those have a three-part collar which incuses the lettering into the edge of the coin when the coin is struck.

My understanding is that they are going to use the segmented collar for the lettered edge. It isn't practical for something like the business strike Presidential dollars because of the high speeds needed to make the huge number of pieces. But for the much smaller coinage and slower speeds needed for the 3 inch cons it should work fine.
