don't think about it -- -do it. we owe it to our nations heritage to record all artefacts over 300 yrs old.

if you're coming to the rally on Sunday bring it along and will record on site. If not before you take the impression dust the seal surface with talc and that way it won't stick to the die and remove any loose corroded metal
