It is absolutely awesome! THings like this become a heirloom for a family. Imagine you use coins from the year your child was born. It will be treasured forever. I truly like your art and you are an awesome instructor. I hope to be able to come for a personal class soon. Thanks! Marin

[@Myual]

I love this tiny bell!! Makes me want to send you some of the coins in my collection to see what you can do with them!

[@bestoftristen3661]

How did he do it?

[@mamabearssheshedtracykeato6941]

What an awesome little project! I saw the way your rings were made and came back to see this. This truly is amazing you are able to fuse those together.

[@theunboxinator3798]

Thanks!

[@butterflygirl4735]

that bell is so awesome..so much of the coin work you do and edward does is so inspirational..

[@CoinRingsfromTheMint]

Thanks!

[@stringfrenzy]

That's an awesome piece that anyone would be proud to have! Such a cool price for a contest!

[@CoinRingsfromTheMint]

Thanks!

[@jonathancampbell5523]

Wow! Impressive workmanship.

[@gabec3299]

Wohoo! I did it! I made one and it looks good..not as perfect as yours but for the the first one I make is great ... Thank you for the idea and support.

[@CoinRingsfromTheMint]

Right on that's awesome!

[@railmaker]

Well, first of all, all you nay sayers who are expressing negative comments, are complicit by just watching. Second, I’m sure most of you have been to a zoo or a theme park where they had the penny flattener. You put a quarter and a penny in and you turn the crank and the flattened penny comes out with the theme on it. Great job, man! Good tools and great craftsmanship!

[@troystutsman1400]

Gabe C Hi Gabe, Would you mind sharing where you got your equipment used in making your bell? Thanks for your time and help...! Have a great day and be blessed.

[@TheRandyman0008]

Awesome bell! I can absolutely appreciate an item like this. Both as a coin collector, and a biker. That is absolutely a bell I would buy to put on my Harley.

[@CoinRingsfromTheMint]

Thanks! I should have some on my website here in a week or so.

[@rafagro3906]

This guy is awesome...I got two rings from him...one for me and recently one for my wife(still waiting for it)...I get a lot of attention and questions about my ring....and yessss I do give them your website..great work..

[@CoinRingsfromTheMint]

Right on I really appreciate it!

[@sindjinn]

As a coin collector I both cringe at and admire your work. Keep it up!!

[@CoinRingsfromTheMint]

Haha thanks!

[@1202burton]

Section 331 of Title 18 of the United States code provides criminal penalties for anyone who “fraudulently alters, defaces, mutilates impairs, diminishes, falsifies, scales, or lightens any of the coins coined at the Mints of the United States.” This statute means that you may be violating the law if you change the appearance of the coin and fraudulently represent it to be other than the altered coin that it is. As a matter of policy, the U.S. Mint does not promote coloring, plating or altering U.S. coinage: however, there are no sanctions against such activity absent fraudulent intent.

[@stay_free]

Timothy, you are a moron.

[@docwade3409]

Timothy Mckee He’s not committing fraud in any way. He isn’t trying to pass these off as something they are not. 100% within the law.

[@thecopperminer6175]

Very creative. I would love to own that piece of art! Thanks

[@CoinRingsfromTheMint]

Thanks!

[@pootieputin2771]

WOW! Great instructional video. The step to solder the 2 halves together is fascinating. Also, the bell makes a nice sound. These would work great for the motorcycle folks who run these on their bikes for good luck. Thanks for the video!

[@CoinRingsfromTheMint]

Right on you're welcome!

[@pootieputin2771]

p.s. I have a motorcycle :)

[@lryall]

Definitely the coolest artistic expression I’ve ever seen. Fantastic work.

[@briantw7096]

I agree Great video, I'd much rather hear the sounds of a productive workshop than that music

[@vilstef6988]

With my tinnitus, I could barely hear the bell over the music. Irony reigns.

[@gabec3299]

You think you can do a video demo with just a doming block and a ring stretcher... my dome comes out too wide and not enough lip so I had to stretched the bottom too much .. but I cant get a lip on the dome to hold the solder ... any help is appreciated ..

[@CoinRingsfromTheMint]

Yeah it would be pretty tough with out the swedish wrap.

[@j_forciare7957]

Awesome coin bell! Your craftsmanship never ceases to amaze me!

[@CoinRingsfromTheMint]

Thanks!

[@mdpc211]

Finally something different with coins, now that is a very great video and concept can't wait to make one, thanks to you both.

[@CoinRingsfromTheMint]

Right on you're welcome!

[@CoinRingsfromTheMint]

Thanks!

[@bojidarbojinov1246]

страхотно!

[@SpaceInvader78]

Great idea! Would make a really nice gift. How about one made from a coin that its year celebrates the anniversary of the Liberty Bell?

[@CoinRingsfromTheMint]

That is a great idea!

[@JuanSanchez-rk9zk]

Really nice work!! I like how you explain the steps. Easy to follow, thanks to you i started making coin rings thanks alot.

[@CoinRingsfromTheMint]

Wow way cool thanks!

[@erica5288]

Awesome bell and I love that you used the punch out from the coin as the striker. Two thumbs up

[@CoinRingsfromTheMint]

Thanks!

[@tanksoldier9770]

The bell is cool ,but the music is not cool , hitting the mute is Cool !!!

[@CoinRingsfromTheMint]

Haha!

[@JacuzziSurfer]

Sick video! No music next time?

[@boes224]

That is sweet

[@JacuzziSurfer]

karl seel huh? Sick video means that it’s a good video. Like “whoa that car is SICK DUDE”. You need a nap bro.

[@MrDirtysteve75]

karl seel Dont be a douche, especially since the comment flew right over your head. Also, if you cant commit to saying "ass" dont bother at all. What are you? 5?

[@JacuzziSurfer]

stephen e haha he deleted his comment! 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@MrDirtysteve75]

JacuzziSurfer that's funny. Guess it's easier to delete than to say he misunderstood the comment.

[@LarryJHoman]

Dude. That is one of the coolest things I have seen made from a coin. Thanks for sharing!

[@CoinRingsfromTheMint]

You're very welcome!

[@michaelpeak7260]

Watching you at work just shows me what a person can do if they set their mind to it and it really makes me smile to see a craft men at work post more videos please . I hope you had a great Labor Day weekend. live on dude

[@CoinRingsfromTheMint]

Right on thanks! I really appreciate the encouragement.

[@steven2212]

Had to mute it. Great work.

[@ruderemarks2337]

Is this not illegal?

[@CoinRingsfromTheMint]

It is legal outside fraudulent intent

[@st0n3p0ny]

Yeah. Changing a $1 bill to a $5. I also read something about how there are laws against selling modified currency (could have been youtube lawyer BS). Could you clue me in about the tools you're using? What are these dyes and punches actually made for? Or was it all machined specifically to make bells like this?

[@TR19]

You just can't sell modified currency as currency. Selling as a bell or ring as A- OK.

[@LongIslandP8ntball]

I know someone who got in trouble for drilling a hole. In a quarter n made it into a keychain. Its considered defacing us currency

[@davidran5923]

Any shit that gov do not like is illegal. That was a awesome work of art:-)

[@byronlondon7789]

Awesome man! Thanks for sharing,I love what you do. Please keep it coming. Great job.

[@Highball28]

What a Super Idea. Your Workmanship is unprecedented. Someone will get a Wonderful Treasure. I Love Watching your Videos. Thanks So Much For Sharing

[@CoinRingsfromTheMint]

Thanks!

[@tghost7721]

🤔This is cool, but, I thought destroying US coins was illegal..

[@CoinRingsfromTheMint]

No it is completely legal outside fraudulent intent.

[@tghost7721]

Coin Rings from The Mint - Change You Can Wear, its illegal to destroy nickels and pennies since 2005. ..so the coins that are being used for the video are ok for now.

[@TLAS]

Wrong.

[@tghost7721]

TLAS , read about it

[@TLAS]

@@tghost7721 You tell me to "read about it" but I already have nearly two years ago when I started making coin rings. Do you have a particular link to information you believe will change my mind? If so, share it. There is an entire industry with tooling makers and jewelry making suppliers like Rio Grande who supply, not only tools, but offer workshops on it. Interesting that you single out nickels and pennies in your comments. First, those are two of the coins least likely to be made into rings (or other items). Secondly, what about coin elongation? Ever heard that term? Look it up and let us know how that is legal but, somehow, making rings, bells, etc is not (according to you, that is).

[@rickyburton4642]

Music sucks hard.

[@CoinRingsfromTheMint]

Just like your mother Trebek!

[@jamesdibiase346]

That bell is awesome. It's ideas like this that ad extra enjoyment to the hobby, thanks. So cool.

[@CoinRingsfromTheMint]

I agree!

[@jamesdibiase346]

@@CoinRingsfromTheMint the only way to make it better would be to use the Bicentennial half dollars, 1776-1976.

Great bell! Can’t wait to make one.

Cool!

Thank you, Skyler, for making this video. As a fellow CRC member, I have always admired these bells the Edward Rose came up with, and have been intimidated to try to make one. After watching this, I believe I might be abe to turn one out myself. :-) Good day, Sir.
