There is disclosed a device and method for the transposition of a three-dimensional X,Y,Z, axis relief configuration onto a two-dimensional X-Y-axis record surface. A stylus repeatedly scans the device, such as a coin, and a recorder pen repeatedly scans a record sheet in synchronism, each successive scan of the coin and recorder being offset slightly from the previous scan. When the stylus is moved in the Z or vertical direction by the surface of the coin the recorder pen is correspondingly moved in, for example, the Y direction, producing a two-dimensional picture of the coin with a three-dimensional appearance.
