Coin rings.
I decided to try a new venture and go with making coin rings. Made my first one and it went rather good except for a couple errors, made a few corrections and popped off my second one. I gave the first one to my oldest kid and he posted it on facebook. Told me last night he had 30 likes within an hour. Showed a couple buddies how they came out and now have a couple requests for some to be made for a fee.
I have a very nice 1812 commemorative toonie, some silver dollars and etc..... with lots of art on the coins. Those should look superb when done.Post them when I finish them.
The first pic was my first ring.
The rest shows how I did it and the results of my second one.
Enjoy.

Very nice RR. Always nice when a kid appreciates a gift from a parent too! Much better when it was made with love.

Thanks Lydia. They seem to be doing well for sales. Sold 4 of them and only started 2 days ago making them.

Re: Coin rings.
That's great Rock! How long does it take you to make one, and how much are you selling them for? Just curious because they look fantastic, so I hope you're getting a decent amount for your work.

Re: Coin rings.
Those rings are awesome Rock!!
I'm wondering though do you think you might get into trouble for defacing Canadian currency??

Re: Coin rings.
What coins are you talking of???? Not worried, been there before once or twice. I havent even destroyed 20 bucks worth. A million I can see them coming after me.
Pink, I sold them for 25 bucks and 30 for the commemorative toonie,because I have to buy them online and they cost me 5 for a 2 dollar coin. I would say 1 hour give or take.
