I have been watching a lot of videos lately on people making coin rings. I think they are awsome. The way I want to make on is with a mandrel and the coins original lettering is visa lee on both sides. I bought a 1926 liberty quarter to make one with when I get the mandrel. But the other way is tapping the edge of the coin around and around with a hammer till it is the desired shape, drilling it and so on. I had the tools for this but people said do not use clad. Only silver because they will crack and break. Well I was definitely not using my silver for my first go so I used a 1966 quarter and just see what happened. This is what I came up with. I am beyond pleased for 3 hours work on a clad quarter. What do you guys think?
