How do you make coins mint?

To make a coin, you take 2 pieces of hard metal (usually steel) and engrave a reverse image of what you want the coin to look like on these pieces of metal. This is called the die. You then put the metal between the 2 dies and apply pressure to strike the coin. Ancient and medieval coins used a hammer to strike the coin (often multiple strikes were required) but modern methods use machines to strike the coin and usually only one strike is required except in high-relief and proof coins.
