@@adiem1653 thank you

Eventually I do plan on making them with 90% as soon as I get comfortable enough with the process, getting good consistent bells at the moment, so maybe soon.

Sorry that you couldn’t watch, unfortunately with the way my workstation is configured, the arm that holds my phone is limited in motion when in landscape.

I purchased the self centering punch on ebay, search for the following and you should find it; BIG Self Centering Coin Ring Punch Set, No Spacers 1/4" 3/8" 1/2" 5/8" 3/4" Here's a link to the one I purchased as well; www.ebay.com/itm/324093514948?itmmeta=01HZW1AC2BD3K73QSSN1RPQ8VN&hash=item4b757a94c4:g:9z8AAOSwDhxdtivk&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAA8OrQrZuKMNCa9L8sbSgo%2BJ8fLoWpylrCyj%2Bw5sVQhc63zwfb9hzNFIi6SFKsBA%2BeRPvALDuvJfBma4BP3jWfGH%2BjsKWnxvLcCO5ml2fG5lZqm1Q7NDj8E%2FX8VS2z0O4LJk4GKWCQ1gXpum55G9PDDAE4%2FPjMckvVfq9%2FV%2FzsBmudOQGnZuT0uZdN6L0%2BvSelegbGSl9zQCMZfSdtpY3%2FCjmNFA8oOcMr0CqL1260oni4RQvEU3MQLwbSoYikCRXQxczozobAj3W%2BtsniJeH%2BoJvQoA2QQIPg2HRuNz8GPEDN3qssgDIBUOFQyGVDwoB8nw%3D%3D%7Ctkp%3ABk9SR6LBqYH_Yw

I'm not sure who the manufacturer is, couldn't find a name on it. I got it from a friend who is a jeweler and yes, the pitch is 17. Thanks for watching.

I got my ring sizer mandrel from a local jewelry shop, it was an extra, kind of an older one but works well. Most of my other tools I got off eBay, Mike Still Tools I believe is who I got most of them from. Arbor press from eBay as well.

I got this one from a 2011 silver proof set. The US mint started putting silver back into our coinage in 1992, but only in silver proof sets. If you plan to purchase any, be aware that there are also clad proof sets.

It's basically an acid used to clean jewelry made from precious metals. It comes as a dry powder that you disolve in water, package says sodium bisulfate, got it off ebay.

The ring is wet after quenching in water, I do that to dry off the ring.

No, it was a copper/nickel clad quarter, I believe the US mint didn't make any silver quarters from 1965 to 1991, with the exception of some 40% bicentennials, it started up again with proofs in 1992.

Thank you!

It is a acid compound used to clean or pickle precious metals, I use Sparex No 2. I hope this answers your question, I used google translate.

Thank you, I try to keep the videos short and relevant to coin ring making.

I heat up the ring and drop it in, I know some heat up the pickle in a pickle pot, but I got this method from a jeweler in town. Just be careful of the splash after dropping it in, I believe it is or has characteristics of an acid.

Thanks bud, you are a master!

Sorry but do you not have to rinse in baking soda after pickle?

@@noahbailey493 I haven’t in the past, I normally run it under water after the ring is done. Before I discard the pickle I’ll put some baking soda in it to neutralize before disposal. I’ll look into it though.

Thank you!

That's a good idea, going to work on that, thanks.

Thank you

It's jewelry pickling compound, used for cleaning jewelry made from non-ferrous metals (silver, gold, copper).

Thank you for watching.

It's a fun one to make, lots of nice detail.

Thank you for watching.

Thanks for watching it, I've been making coin rings for about two years, hopefully the videos will be helpful.

Thank you for that, I almost gave up on them myself after trying several different methods with no success. Hope it helps and thank you for watching the video.

If you have a skin sensitivity to copper, then yes, the ring would most likely turn your finger green.

I sell them on my etsy site: coinringsbykev.etsy.com

That's correct, just a couple of seconds, I do anneal pretty often though for 90% coins because they can work harden quickly.

Thank you!

Thank you! I save them to possibly melt them at a later date.

Thank you!

Thank you

....I don't have a computer...I'm on a cell.

Yes I do. You can see my selection on my etsy site: coinringsbykev.etsy.com

This one is $25. Here is the link to the listing. coinringsbykev.etsy.com/listing/1601542788

This ring will most likely turn your finger green if you have an allergy to copper, coating the inside with fingernail polish can help reduce the reaction.

Most days I prefer the contrast, but I agree, the shiny finish does make the ring stand out.

These currently sell for $60. You can see the listing on my etsy site: coinringsbykev.etsy.com

Thanks for the sub and the comment, always glad to hear from other coin ring makers. This half ounce is my favorite as far as don't tread on me rounds, they're hard to find and carry a heavy premium. Do you sell your rings online?

@@coinry Hi, i'm not selling at the moment. I'm still in my learning process.

@@giuseppevincenti2988 Gotcha, only been doing this for about a year myself, let me know if you have any questions or if you would like me to focus a video on any of the processes that I use.

@@coinry thank you very much 👌

Not sure if you're in the market to purchase this round. I buy them from govmint.com and they have them in stock, they're having a black friday sale sitewide, the more you buy, the more you save kind of thing. They are a little expensive, but they're on only place that I've found them. International shipping looks like $40, so the savings may help with that. Anyway, here's the link if you're interested: www.govmint.com/intaglio-mint-1-2-oz-silver-don-t-tread-on-me-round-bu
