coin rings

[jddave79]

I'm sure this topic has came up a few times but, since I haven't posted for quite awhile or been been active in the forum I would start anew.

I have seen 2 different ways that coin rings are/were made one looks drilled with the outside smooth and some of the design still visible on the inside. The second has got me scratching my head....both the inside and outside still have the coin design visible like it has been rolled. below are links with both examples pictured. If anyone has any insight into techniques that would be great.


Thanks - JD in WV

You can find Mr Edmonton here at the Garret forum all the time. Just case anyone needs some extra help or info, I'm sure he won't mind, seems like a nice enough fellow.

I have emailed him several times asking and he doesn't reply so I would say your statement is untrue....
