After having spent 30 years on active duty in the U.S. Army Medical Service Corp, I
retired with the rank of Colonel in 1991.  I flew
fixed wing aircraft and medical evacuation
helicopters during the first part of my career and served in the personnel area during
the last years.  When I retired I was the Deputy Chief of Staff, Personnel, Health Services
Command, US Army.   While serving in different parts of the world I became fascinated
with the diversity, creativity and beauty of various coins utilized in daily commerce.  Also
my innate interest in how things work and in finding practical solutions to mechanical
problems and in devising ways to utilize common items for different purposes led me to
begin coin cutting as a hobby in 1988.  Around that same time,  I also became interested
in silver smithing and other metal arts.  All of this led to a small business venture when I
retired in 1991. This focus and involvement with metals and art forms and design also
provided the stimulus to acquire
tools and equipment which have facilitated and
enhanced my skills as a coin cutter,  as well as furthering additional
hobbies.

My wife of 48 years has been not only my inspiration but also my valued critic.  She has
an eye for precision, accuracy and beauty.  She manages the business side of our
venture.

Through the years the quality and beauty of my work has greatly improved, resulting in
numerous orders.  A large percentage of our sales are repeat customers and their
referrals.  Occasionally I do custom orders as time permits.   My number one goal is
customer satisfaction.
Cutting The Coins
All coins are hand cut using a jeweler's saw.  It can take from 1 to 10 hours to finish a
coin, depending on the complexity of the coin.  The money clips are high quality clips.  
The
clips are rhodium plated and have an adjustable spring that allows them to hold one
bill or many.  Some of the coins are made into attractive
pendants and some are inserted
into belt buckles.  All are quality products.  I have cut coin jewelry which includes coin
money clips (moneyclips), coin pendants and coin belt buckles.  I strive for excellence  
when cutting  the coins and I have a
100% approval on my eBay sales.
The very best is barely good
enough for my customers
