In this video im engraving Lincoln penny from 1951. I find engraving this particular coin very challenging because of its size and softness of material. Coin itself is too small for me to transfer design therefore i must draw ornaments directly on coins surface. I start with waxing the coin and drawing rough design with pencil, if im satisfied with looks, I scribe the lines with polished metal point. Once I have all lines scribed i use Lindsay Carbalt 110 degree V point graver to cut out patter, I remove the background with same tool and for larger surfaces dental drill comes very hand to remove background fast. Shading lines are also done with 110 degree V point. I used black printmaking ink to fill engraved lines and background.
