Neat. How did you do that?

tsacch · November 12, 2005 4:41AM

a hammer, vise to smack it on......about an hour for each coin ring, then drill it out.

I've seen this done before, could you please elaborate on how you exactly made these, I'd like to make an Iowa ring, with Iowa showing like your Louisiana. Those are truely awesome!

Why not do a Sacagawea ring? I've done one, and it's pretty easy....the metal is rather soft.

Cool, I like the two toned look of the clad one. Only I'd worry that it would turn my finger green

Hold the coin by the middle and tap the coin with the hammer, rotate the coin a tad and tap it again.....keep doing it and rotating the coin.....

its easy, there is an old post about this and some dude had it detailed with pics and all.
