Richard, what size do these rings turn out to be?

I would assume that a dime would be a very small ring and you would have to go to a half or dollar to get a size 12 or bigger.

Looks good. Copper is supposed to have healing properties.

I can stretch to a size 5 but not much more

nohope587. Do you think you could make a short video of how you make these incredible rings.
not very good at that kind of thing
its a simple process.. drill a hole in the middle of the coin, anneal it then put it on a ring mandrel and slowly hammer the sides down until its folded over.
Keep turning it to stop it from distorting.
Pickle and polish.
