hmm, its a cobination of the diagonal etched lines and the dropped shadow both within and without giving it that delicately tooled feel, but with the robust letter forms of the bold sans (or small serifs). phew!
i'm quite partial to a bit of chisel now and then when its offered , though try not to on school nights ; )

typo - you are approaching legendary status in the type stakes generally so i reckon i'm not communicating what i'm after clearly!
what i need to do is take an interesting bold sans add the exterior drop shadow, create the fine engraved lines inside but with a clear area to the outline and then add the interior drop shadow - basically combine examples 1 and 2 i provided in another font.
f8in hell i'm boring myself now! but any more ideas - how to create the irregular faint lines in illy???
and thank you kindly!

Ahh, I get your drift now. I'm not much of a drawin man, so I can't help you with the creation, but hopefully someone with those skillz will chime. Would love to learn myself.
