ENGRAVING POST STAMP, HERMES 2011

[@Flavum]

Wonderful. I so wish it were in HD, though. So much detail to be seen!

[@ritapileggi5537]

Amazing fine craftsmanship

[@avcomth]

Same process and set of skills as those used on banknotes. This relief plate is the same one used for the intaglio printing of ิbanknotes for security features.

Amazing work Yannis! I have a question. Is there anything special about the steel plate? It feels so melleable and easy to engrave.

[@yangourz]

Jordan the plate is not yet hardened, is a little bit softer from a hardened plate. Don't think that is not difficult.

[@omid7665]

Beautifull and great,, sir. I have a question sir. How long will the plate last until it is completely destroyed by the pressing process, I mean how many prints can we get before the plate has to be retouched? Thank you sir. ❤

[@yangourz]

Really i don't know... this plate is for Hellenic post office for printing the post stamps. I make 77 prints in different colours before production. Thanks.
