Very nice...How long does it take you to make a ring?

From start to finish about five hours trying to shave time off by hammering harder and faster just ruins the ring lol.

Do you have a website you sell these on? I would be interested in one. Possibly a Walking Liberty half or Morgan. |

Conner Not really I do it as a hobby more than anything and I have a hard time keeping up with demand. So a web site would turn it into work. What size would you be looking for?

Richard...I looked at a few ring sizing charts online and I think I would be a size 11-12. Would you happen to have any this size?

11-12 is certainly possible but it would not have the tire type shape. it would look more like this unless you went to a Morgan sized coin  |

That 1982 ring is impressive. I am amazed at how you can get the date and text clear like that.
As a matter of interest, what was the original donor coin? It strikes me as unusual to have modern date of 1982 with the old text of "BRITT OMN REX". Did you change the date?
