Destroyed to new beginnings!!! Nice brother!!!

Nice Gold ring. I have planned to make one for a while now and bought the gold coin but just can't seem to be able to punch a hole into it without having someone who wants to buy a gold ring. Plenty of folks want them in silver. So i am getting lots of practice making those.

[@CoinRingsfromTheMint]

That’s something I totally understand.

Pumping these quarters out like a machine. Giving them to homeless for the holiday, especially the ones without family. Your channel gives me ideas and inspiration. Thx!

[@CoinRingsfromTheMint]

That’s a fantastic idea!

[@151ncoke]

You have an impressive collection of tools my friend. I'm jealous 😢😂

[@CoinRingsfromTheMint]

Haha thanks! I really like tools :)

[@Shittymechanic]

You make it look so easy

[@amondavis]

[@CoinRingsfromTheMint]

I noticed when you made your platinum eagle ring, you talked about work hardening, and not annealing, and with this one you have annealed it more. Would you and anneal the platinum one the same amount now with more experience?

[@CoinRingsfromTheMint]

With more experience I’d just turn down the platinum job :) Seriously though pure metal like platinum, I’m more worried about getting them work hardened because they are ridiculously soft after annealing. Alloys like 22k gold are much harder even after annealing. So there isn’t as much worry about them being too soft. The main issue with an alloy is them become too brittle and splitting.

[@azwelke2638]

Thank you :) I forget the eagle was 22K I understand now. I would like to make a platinum eagle ring someday, but I am just getting started. Thank you for sharing your experiences.

[@SJSEE0209]

how much for the whole set up?

[@jwrappuhn71]

[@ThatNerdyCatholic]

this totally feels like one of the educational clips on the Mr. Roger's Neighborhood. Well done with the nostalgia. 😊

[@LTDSilverworks]

Kind of expensive coin to make a ring out of!

[@CoinRingsfromTheMint]

That’s what is all about!

[@mandatory_pericarditis8595]

Thumbs up from England

Epic

[@CoinRingsfromTheMint]

Thank you!

I d you really hope that you're checking your coins to make sure that they're not worth 20 times the amount of money you're holding in your hand because if they've got little errors like double strikes and stuff you could be looking at a bunch of money and here you are just ruining it for jewelry when you can be making even a bigger profit Selling it to a collector and then choosing another coin that may not have that error on it

[@sed6]

I really wish that you could eliminate that bell shape end around the edge where the groves are. I have a similar ring from my birth year Kennedy silver dollar, perhaps made by you perhaps another, which doesn't get worn enough because the inconsistency and thickness on one end versus the other. Perhaps you could pound or press the ridge flat first next time?
