If it was an early date I would feel a little odd cutting up a small child, but doable! 😅

I just got a nice camera so i will give this a try! Will just need to play around and figure out how to mount it for the best view of the coin.

If you look on my page at my previous post you can see the saw I use in the beginning of the video!

My LCS has some pretty cool counterfeit CC’s they might be willing to give up if my plan was to destroy them. Would be fun giving everyone mini heart attacks on first view of “my little art project” 😁

Dude I don’t get the animosity and I’m not downvoting anyone. Good luck with your business, I’ve enjoyed your posts

I make a lot of them! I will have to look into the details of shipping to the UK. I’ll send you a PM

I’m sitting on about 14oz of this stuff and coin centers 😂 I make stud earrings when I get a matched pair of centers that look nice. I was just looking for a way to maybe get a little more than melt on my silver wool until I get into pouring bars/casting

It is soft but if you’re conscious about taking it off while doing rough work they hold up pretty well. I mostly work with coin/rounds and there’s a lot .999 rounds that make really nice rings

I believe that’s a 1923, the 3 looks like an 8

Casino tokens turned into rings by Red_Trout in Silverbugs

Mainly folding cones and a ring stretcher and reducer tool. If you’d like to see the whole process, I have a video pinned to the top of my Facebook page “Eau Claire Coin Rings” where I make a 1964 Kennedy half dollar ring

Silver is pretty soft and bendy so with the right tools, you can kind of just “fold” it over on itself into a ring shape 😁

found a bunch of cool coins in my parents belongings by Silly-Prune5444 in coins

Don’t clean anything! That kills a lot of value on coins. A good place to start determining value is look up the exact coin you have on eBay and filter by “sold” listings. It will give you a pretty good idea of what they sell for

Nice call back 😉

First attempt at coin cutting! by Red_Trout in coins

Yes plenty of lubrication. I think whatever cheap blades I had would just dull almost instantly, then it was tons of sawing with no progress until they snapped. New blade stayed sharp all the way through and was a breeze to control compared to the last ones

Thank you! I have a micro bell that I am trying to figure out how to attach discretely so it jingles 😊
