Extraordinarily annoying narration, but some nice sequences on NCLT
production:
(It's one of the "How It's Made" series, so avoid it if you are allergic)

Coin stuff starts at 1:40
Good stuff starts at 2:35

Apologies if this is a repost.

Thanks Jeff, it was a good video, but was made for those who aren't
numismatically savvy.
No, you aren't Canadian, but the RCM and the RAM certainly have NCLT
tendencies!

coming here too-

Thanks Jeff, it was a good video, but was made for those who aren't
numismatically savvy.

One would have to be pretty well fixed to afford the plethora of coins offered
each year by the RCM, not even counting the various bullion issues.
Many collectors of Canada's coins ignore the NCLT to concentrate on the regular
issues but lately there have been tons of circulating commemorative quarters and
loonies.

Uh huh.
I noted with interest that they strike their NCLT twice. The RAM strikes
*proof* issues thrice.
(...just wondering about complete inconsequentials - does the RCM strike
proof issues thrice?)

I *did* enjoy watching those chaps handling the large, long strips of blank
silver.
Mmmmmmmm!

I'll say.
I believe I *may*have ranted on that topic in the past in this very forum.
