thq Pillar of the Community United States 3343 Posts	Posted 06/13/2018 3:54 pm Here's a good spare time project. Make a ring out of a silver coin. https://coinringusablog.com/the-his...t-the-years/ I found one of these partially completed in a junk bin, kind of like your square dime. It was made by the first method - hammering the rim until it mushrooms to form the ring. The center of the ring hasn't been cut out, so the image of the monarch (Leopold II of Belgium) is still there. "Two minutes ago I would have sold my chances for a tired dime."
