MOFFATT & CO. REACHES AGREEMENT TO PRODUCE GALLERY MINT PRODUCTS

 Moffatt & Co. Extreme Custom Minting of Eureka Springs, AR. has announced that they have reached a manufacturing agreement with Martin Roenigk of Eureka Springs, the new owner of the Gallery Mint’s dies used to produce the line of Gallery Mint US coin reproductions. Mr. Roenigk purchased the rights, dies, and most of the antique minting equipment from surviving Gallery Mint owner Ron Landis in early January.

 

 Mr. Roenigk, owner of the historic Crescent and Basin Park hotels in Eureka Springs and a well known area preservationist, purchased the dies and equipment to keep them from leaving Eureka Springs as there were other interested parties. “The numismatic art that was created by Gallery Mint is a very important part of the history of Eureka Springs and it would have been an unfortunate blow to the artistic legacy of the community to have these works of art taken and produced elsewhere,” stated Mr. Roenigk. Plans are to one day open a historical mechanical museum type attraction in Eureka Springs. Moffatt & Co. will be providing technical support when this project is ready to launch.

 

 Through this exclusive agreement Moffatt & Co. will be producing most Gallery Mint products. This agreement will also allow Moffatt & Co. to utilize design elements of these classic US coin replicas so that professional numismatists, and numismatic clubs and organizations can also create custom coins and medals with these original Gallery Mint classic US coin designs.

 Moffatt & Co. partner Timothy Grat, who was Chief-Coiner with the Gallery Mint for 10 years, will assure that all quality standards regarding materials and manufacturing instituted by Gallery Mint will be maintained, in addition to honoring the quantities of any previously released limited issues.

 Scheduled for immediate production is a previously unreleased, Ron Landis engraved, 1652 Massachusetts Pine Tree Three-pence. Soon to follow will be the Gobrecht Dollar, with main devices sculpted by former US Mint artist Thomas Rogers, also known as the sculptor for the reverse of the Sacajawea dollar, the Massachusetts, Maryland, and South Carolina state quarters, as well as many other collectable commemorative coins, Congressional and U.S. Mint medals.
