coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/30/2018 5:29 pm There was a video I saw about a hobo cent. It was a long process, but a great view of how this is done. I didn't have a clue: klf9hDfRyYE I tried to find the post where we talked about it a while back, but didn't find it. Edited by coop 04/30/2018 5:38 pm Report this Post to the Staff

The real "Hobo, now there is Americana, this new stuff pales IMHO!...but some is too cutsie to pass up! (Stamped fantasy coin) Report this Post to the Staff

The results kinda remind me of JSG Boggs, just not in paper.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/30/2018 7:47 pm I saw another video of making coin rings, it was very interesting also, but so far I haven't found it yet. (there are many more on youtube, but I enjoyed the way the presenter did for the coin rings) I would never buy one. Keep in mind how a coin wears, they would wear even faster as the rim is removed from the rings. It would eventually be a plain silver ring. Report this Post to the Staff
