Seattle sculptor wants to mold U.S. coin making into an art form

[jeff of pa]

In the rundown basement of Seattle's former Immigration and Customs Enforcement building is the studio of Heidi Wastweet, a 42-year-old sculptor who believes coins are exchangeable art.

"There will always be a place for cash as long as there are illegal drug deals, garage sales and people on Craigslist buying things on a one-to-one basis," she said. "We'll always have coins."

Nice article. Thanks for posting.

We need to resurrect Teddy Roosevelt to fix our coins again.
