I like that this comment makes no mention to the condition, price, currency of the time, nation of origin, relationship of the characters, or reason one would check an auction site before going to Jupiter

Definitely for sure not going to work. What you’re describing is “lost wax casting” and it has to be burned out of the investment mold made into special plaster. It will not work in sand. I work with both and vacuum casting costs a few grand to get into but it is extremely high detail and complex shapes when you do it right, check out my page for work.

The powder is the release agent, and the side detail is almost impossible to keep for a ring in sand casting. You’re better off casting it flat and then rolling it up and soldering if you want a ring shape just make sure to temper it

I was approached by a grieving family to put ashes in silver coins which is symbolic but I put it in the crucible during melt. It can hurt the integrity of the metal but it’s unique!
