Still trying to hammer the perfect Circle.. getting close now..
Silver is actually harder to work for me than clad. it requires finesse.

no problem its no secret most people try once and give up anyway.
use a die punch to put a hole in the center of the coin. for the Half dollar I punch 13mm
then anneal
then put over a ring mandrel and with a four ounce nylon hammer start tapping away.. eventually it will flatten out into a ring shape.
