Great coins Tim. How did you get the shading on Lucky. I can see the shading lines on the other two. Is that done with bulino or differences in stoning or what?. Thanks for sharing.

very cool coins
Don,
The bottom two coins are engraved, so yes there you can see the shading lines but

ps. I had a hard look at lucky. I like the way you put liberty in front of his ear and shoulder.Also noticed he has a visor on and not a cap. I love this guy.
