Continuing with the ring theme. I feel I have gotten this down pat now so maybe time to look at making something else.

I think Half dollars make pretty neat rings

Nice job! Makes me want to try one, but I doubt I could get it to look half as good as those.

Try the 90 % silver, a little harder to make, alot more annealing.
Cracked the first silver, and the second one I lost the details on the coin, had to polish them off.
thrid one came out perfectly. 1943 walking liberty.
