Most of the patterns I've posted here haven't been the best choice to start into coin cutting. This was fun pattern to cut, but doesn't have a lot of drilling, which is great to begin with. The coin does heat up because of the design (long thin pieces don't have anywhere for the heat to dissipate), so you will need to stop when the coin start warming up, else the pattern will start to come off. (When the patterns do lift, I use superglue to re-attach, then soak in acetone when finished).
