Our Process
Shire Post Mint coins are struck one at a time in West Fork, Arkansas, USA using solid metals, hand-engraved designs, antique machinery and traditional coining techniques. For antiqued coins, the coloring/patina process is done by hand, and it is both an art and a science so coins will vary slightly. Our unique packaging includes a description of each coin and translations if applicable.
We collaborate with many artists to create our coins. Learn more about our artists.
The magnetic handle is broad ranging, i'm fact i'm on my second one, because magnetic handle no.1 is magnetically attached to something metallic in my unit. I stored it attached to... (chair leg? desk leg? stove hood? refrigerator? hot water cylinder? metal pipe? shower frame? washer? drier?). :P and after 6 months of not finding it; ordered the next one :(
But for real people in real life the magnetic handle grabs anything Fe based and needs to be slid off (rare earth magnets take their job seriously around the clock; they are permanently on duty).
So when "loading" your pre-chilled seals, using wax or glue to make a seal on an envelope or card, then swapping seal "coins" {emblems? insignia?} around, the handle is easy to use, then the handle can be used again for the next seal, and then the handle is best stored with the seals (who cluster adoringly around it, lol) not on something random & metallic as per my missing one... :(
So the magnetic handle system is useful as a 1 stop seal attachment handle, it's interchangeable with other seals, it grips well all the time and can be enough fun to lose :) It's usefulness beats the **** in versions that come with other wax seals and having 1 handle for all the SPM seals reduces clutter in my wax seal equipment box. Why doesn't everybody use a magnetic handle and Fe based seals? SPM got there first (afaik) and it's a great idea, get yours and with your seals (and don't lose it!). [if you're wondering about Fe = ferrum which is Latin for iron]
I've not seen a magnetic system like this for wax seals before. Combined with the SPM lead seal coins, it's a perfect way to mix and match wax seals, is easy to use and very effective.
Wax Seal Magnetic Handle System - Handle Only
I'm glad they mentioned the handle as my daughter only put the seals down to get. She was happy that I added in the handle. Magnet worked great.
The handle is sturdy and easy to use. The magnet is super strong to hold the interchangeable coin ends in place. Great purchase!
