Coin clock progress, finally got another one!

This 1882-S will fir well into my 1 o'clock spot for my coin clock, which will one day be compete and made as a working clock face. This is an 1882-S graded MS-67 with bowl luster on both sides. Still need the 2, 8, 9 and 11 o'clock spots

That’s awesome! I hope you get to complete it.

Clever idea, never thought of trying that out.
I only own a 7 o'clock. (or maybe 7:30)

I forgot about that! Nice pickup and a great idea for a collection.

@koynekwest.... Are those authentic points on the clock? Nice work either way.... Cheers, RickO

Thanks. No-just images. I could use actual coins tho, for the 12, 3, 6, and 9 positions. The clock face perimeter is made of slate.

@koynekwest... Thanks for the reply. I thought those points were too uniform and alike to be authentic....but certainly possible. I would hunt for real ones to go on that clock... such a really nice piece of work. Cheers, RickO

eBay seems to have some available. arrow heads

koynekwest · June 25, 2021 12:00PM

Thanks again, ricko! I will consider that-12 and 6 mounted with the obverse showing and 3 and 9 with the reverse.

Wow this is super cool and beautiful!! Im sure you could sell this lile hotcakes right now!!

koynekwest · June 25, 2021 2:50PM

Thanks! But that is a one of a kind slate clock face. I'd like to try it with others that are more available.

Very clever idea - hope you're not going to use the actual coins in the clock face??

Jimnight · June 26, 2021 4:23AM

You're doing a good job .

Oh no! I'm planning on using just the images and getting the clock face printed on either metal or some other material.
