Amazing carving coins

The authors of these works are not limited to simple drilling the holes in the coin and go in his work on using jewelry jig saw (with various types of blades) to cut the protruding part of the coin. The majority of artists use existing images on the coin, cutting the space around them, and as a result fishnet pattern inside a round frame. Others prefer to cut their own shapes.
