Each coin comes packaged in a 3" x 4" hard plastic sleeve, with a folded descriptive insert explaining the piece in the context of the story. Cold struck in 14 grams of solid red-brass under 100 tons force, the Blackfyre Dragon is approximately 29mm (1 and 1/8") in diameter.
Shire Post Mint is a small, family-run coining operation located in Arkansas, USA specializing in licensed fantasy coinage, but they make lots of other things too.
Shire Post Mint began in 2001 when Tom bought his first antique coin press. He had a passion for coin collecting since his childhood and his years of knife-making gave him metalworking knowledge that he used to start making coins. The techniques used of hand-engraving steel dies and pressing one at a time are the same used in the 1800s and earlier. After a few years of research, refinement and building a small following online, his work caught the eye of George R.R. Martin, who was interested in having coins made from his new series of books, A Song of Ice and Fire.
Since then, Shire Post Mint has grown into an internationally recognized company known for attention to detail and a high level of craftsmanship, all while still being super nerdy!
