The technology that printed America's bank notes in the 1800's was on display at the Florida United Numismatists Summer Coin Convention. Mike Bean brought the Spider Press and created collectibles for the show. 
"If you collect bank notes you will appreciate the series of steps required to produce large size bills. Mike Bean is a great numismatic icon doing displays of this old-time technology. This was an event at the Florida United Numismatists Convention in July. More reasons to go to a coin show!"
