- This video will show you step by step how to make just about any coin ring.
More importantly it will help you predictably come out with the same fantastic results every time.
I’ve came up with these methods over the course of 10 years of coin ring making and literally tens of thousands of rings. That information has been reduced down to a 11 min video!
If you have received value from this video I would greatly appreciate you to like this video and leave a comment explaining what else you would like to see me cover. These simple things will help me get this video pushed out to more people and it massively helps my channel.

I'd be really careful posting these videos because it is against federal law what you are doing which is defacing and or destroying currency. And the fbi and treasury departments crack down hard on that. It wouldn't surprise me to hear that you end up getting a visit from the feds
you do know that that's a federal offense
@@oliverhel9629no, actually it's not.
@@oliverhel9629 absent fraudulent intent, they don't care.
No, it's not!
I am not a ring maker but you give excellent presentation. To the point, thorough, well edited, and clear. Thank you.
Much appreciated!
Thanks Skyler! You got me started making rings 3 years ago. I've paid for all my equipment & then some using the skills you have demonstrated.
May God bless you for your generosity!
Sincerely, Mikee409
I love that!!!
I love that!!!
What would you charge to make me a ring out of a walking liberty
Skyler this is the most straight forward explanation of the process for coin rings that I have seen on the net, I use the same steps however I've never teflon wrap as much as you,I guess I've been lucky.
Right? I really tried to boil it down to exactly what was needed! And I know I tend to use more Teflon than I need but I just can’t help myself lol!
I am so thankful and happy that you published this video! What an amazing and thorough turtorial!! THANK YOU!!!
You are so welcome!
Seriously, can we talk about the brilliance within the closing credits? …still laughing!! So good, so good…no more words.
Made my first clad quarter ring today. Just as described. Biggest lesson learned was you can't be timid with the ring stretcher. Trust that you've annealed correctly and go at it. :)
Thanks, Skyler!
Thanks for sharing your process in a manner all of us could follow.
My pleasure!
Thanks for another complete coin ring making video I enjoy the complete process
Right on thanks for the comment!
Your videos are very explanatory! Thank you!
Thank you!
Perfect timing on this tutorial, thanks!!
Right on!
Amazing video!!!! Absolutely perfect.....Thank you sir!!!
Thanks I appreciate it!
Another great video, as always, Skyler! Very clear and concise!
Thank you for this video. It's been about 4 years since I've made any coin rings and I've just been reunited with my high school sweetheart. It's been 50 years since we were together, I just spent a week down in Kentucky where she lives, and we still feel the same as we did when we were teenagers. I showed her some of the rings I've made, and she was impressed, so I want to make her a ring for Christmas. Thanks again for your video.
That’s awesome! Good luck with the new old relationship!
THANKS FOR THE VIDEO. HAPPY NEW YEAR IN 2023! 🇺🇸👍🏻
Beautiful ring
I am so envious of your studio and tools. You are one lucky dude.
Thanks! It has definitely been a strenuous journey making the shop and filling it up :) But I really love it every time I am in there. It never gets old.
These videos are fantastic, can’t thank you enough for them!
Thank you for this video, Skyler! I haven’t made a coin ring for about five years now. This was a fantastic refresher and motivator! Might very well get me back into the shop.
Right on!
Good
@@CoinRingsfromTheMint po k
Nice one Skyler 👌🏾 I am sure this video will be very very helpful for someone starting up.
Thanks pusa!
Dude! Ordered from you several years ago! So glad you are doing well!!! Goodonyas!
Awesome thanks for the support!
I found this very interesting and what a beautiful ring when finished.
Thank you!
Awesome! I always wondered how those were made! Thanx!
No problem!
That is a lot of information there Skyler 👍 I think I will leave this job to the professionals, and just stick to my metal casting! I will see you in your next video 👍
You definitely can’t go wrong there! Casting is literally one of my favorite things to do :)
for us newbies
Thank you ed
Great video, thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Thank you!
This is a fantastic how to video, you are AWESOME mate.
Thanks a ton!
Excellent video. Thank you for sharing such great information and high-value knowledge; I greatly appreciate it.
I really appreciate it thanks!
looking forward to making some , great lesson
Awesome, thank you!
Good work man! Thanks
I am addicted to your channel! Can’t wait to try my hand at making a coin ring. Thanks for providing the inspiration and information. : )
Thank you for sharing.
No problem!
Hello, excellent. Question, do you use
The Swede wrap after you use the 17 degree fold? Then after Swede dies then stretch? I got a little confused
Great & easy to understand instructional video.
Thanks I hope it helps :)
Awesome video! I’m always learning when I come to your channel.. have a wonderful Fathers Day!
Thanks JT!
Knowing nothing, i feel like this is something i would like to have been doing all my life.
Excellent presentation; you are a MONSTER "is like a master, but better"
Wow, thanks!
Another awesome video
This has got me properly motivated to try my hand at making coing rings, thank you for the layman instructions.
Right on!
Fantastic skills. Something I would love to do. What are the basic tools and startup costs.
Man you probably already heard but here we go again. Your job is ownsome. And beautiful . I wish I could do it my self. Have a great day
Right on I really appreciate that!
Great job! I never tier of getting back to the basics.
Thanks!
Excellent work.
Many thanks!
Gooood morning from central Florida! Hope everyone has a great day!
Thanks have a good one!
It's 8° here in Michigan. I moved here from Florida. You just made me depressed lol.
Thanks Skyler. I really enjoy your presentation style and the "back to basic" content is always refreshing and I'm sure will help many. Thanks for the plug as well! You're the greatest!
Right on thanks! I was definitely excited to hear you starting to sell kits in Australia! I know that will help out many who want good tools.
@@CoinRingsfromTheMint I’m looking forward to meeting Rob and purchasing my tools ⚒️
@@CoinRingsfromTheMint is is possible to make a size 6 or 7 ring with just a mallet and mandrel?
Love to be able to do this....
Fascinating! It would probably be way less expensive to just buy a pre-made ring than to buy all the equipment, if you just want one ring, which would be me.
This would be fun to try, but I can't imagine anyone but another professional like yourself having access to all the specialized equipment you used. I'll just go to your site and buy one you made. You do excellent work!
You’d be surprised on how many people out there do this! It’s become quite the serious hobby or more for many people. That’s why I made this video! There are a lot of people who have the equipment but would benefit from the formula to get the most out of it. But I would definitely be honored to make you a ring as well :)
Cool! Looks really great!
Thanks!
Thanks fellow Oregonian for all the info, Question you went from step 4 to Swedish wrap then back to the ring stretcher I'm try to make a step by step log for myself Thanks for the help
You take it back to the ring stretcher after Swedish wrapping in order to make it the proper size like in my 3 examples that I gave.
Excellent video! Unfortunately, I don't have all those sweet Swedish tools, only the expander/reducer press. Any chance you could do a video using just a press and not all the cool Swedish dies?
Love to get into this. Where do you get all the specialty tools, and which ones are the best to start with?
Check out my latest tool list video. I recommend www.jasons.works for tools but the tool list video will be really helpful for you.
Very good work
Thank you!
That’s nice, like the 1942 .
That is beautiful!
Thanks!
That's a neat craft you learned
Thanks!
My dad would have loved this. He had a huge coin collection.
Very cool!
@@CoinRingsfromTheMint before he passed away he was looking for his wedding ring.
Sweet!
That’s how to do a no BS training video.
Well done!
Appreciate it!
Great Video! Thank you..
Glad you liked it!
I’m totally interested in this great video. Thanks
Great brother
U did a great job loved your work
Keep up
Respect 🫡
From India
Thank you!!
Informative
What is the white soap looking stuff you used on the edge of the coin before you put it in the stretcher reducing die?
That is Pepe lube
Hi like your videos how do I keep my ring looking silver after ennealing
You can pickle it in order to clean it if it’s silver or gold. Pepe tools sells bench basics smart pickle. That’s what I use.
Where we can buy the tool set good job
Beautiful work, thanks.
New sub
Thanks for the sub!
Awesome bud
Cool video 👍👍👍
super cool man,where can 1 buy this equipment,it looks like fun.
Check out my tool list video!
Nice video! Now I have something else I want to make!
You should!
@@CoinRingsfromTheMint I ordered a bunch of random stuff to start so looking forward to it all getting here!
Wow so cool! Appox how much to invest in supplies and tools to get started? Do you have a link for the tools? Fantastic vid!
There are a ton of price points of getting in to this. You can spend a little or a lot depending on what you do. A complete setup will run around $3k. Here is my tool video A complete Rundown On All The Tools for Coin Ring Making
ua-cam.com/video/k8C0kXI9SR0/v-deo.html. Also I have a budget coin ring making playlist you should check out.
Great !
Would just letting the coin cool on its own and not quenching it help to avoid the possibility of cracks forming when starting the folding and sizing process ?
Or
Working the coin while its still warm be of any benefit or just stick to quench after annealing ?
No that wouldn’t make a difference.
Awesome vid! We metal detect and have found hundreds of dollars of coins. I would love to supplement our hobby with ring making. 2 questions: 1) is there a starter kit you recommend? I have a 20-ton press and lots of tools. 2) do you think this process could work for shotgun backs (we call them headstamps). We find them everywhere in the woods. Thanks again!
What is the best jewelers pickle?
Nicely done Brother!!! That ring looks amazing!!! WOW!!! I know you and I have talked about that famous green straw for stirring that liver of sulfur! I am surprised it actually made the move!!! If you ever decide to get rid of it, let me know I could give it a nice retirement home! Lol
Haha! I’m thinking about framing it.
@@CoinRingsfromTheMint you wanna sell it?
It's beautiful work i'd like to see one made out Of gold
How long would it take for you to make it from the start to putting it into the jeweller's pickle?
I have used a spoon to hammer the dime on edge drill small hole in center and make it to size by hammering with the spoon
Do you have a step by step booklet
Do you need the 1 ton press or can you use the press included with a ring stretching machine?
You can use your stretcher but you need Jason’s smaller cone set in order to have it fit under the stretcher. Www.Jasons.works
@@CoinRingsfromTheMint Perfect. Thank you Skyler!
Do have a video on all the tools you use and where you got them?
I do! A complete Rundown On All The Tools for Coin Ring Making

Hi Skyler, What weight brass mallet are you using?
Just the one they sell at harbor freight.
Hey skyler! Love your videos. Do you have any statistics on what sizes you can make from various coins without having to Swedish wrap? For instance quarters and halves? Minimum and maximum? Thanks!
I think I might have an older video with that information but I honestly can’t remember what that info would even be. It’s been a while since I haven’t had a Swedish wrap set.
Which torch set up do you use buddy?
I use a smith little torch with a rosebud tip for annealing
Thanks for the video. Question; I’m not quite sure how long I need to anneal for each time I do it. Do you any set time?
It needs to get to a really barely noticeable red. That will tell you you made it up to temp. It’s best to do with the lights off.
@@CoinRingsfromTheMint thanks you very much. I am new and confused but fumbling through it. :)
So this is unrlated to coin ring making, but you seem to know your stuff. So here it goes, I'm going to try to resize my rng at home, i have a hard steel ring mandrel and a sizer, but should I anneal it first? It is tungsten with a rose gold core. Thanks, and nice videos
Im having trouble with my half dollar coin ring making. After I fold it as far as it will go in my 17Deg it will not fit in my ring shrinker,. its a little to big. What size 5 degree dye do I need?
You show them when you use the Swedish wrap method..
If you’re using Jason’s tools it is the middle size of his 3 Swedish wrap set.
This might be a silly question but what is that ceramic tile you use to torch the coin on? Is there anything special about it?
It’s a soldering block. They help the heat stay in the coin as you are annealing.
If a size 15.5 is the target, how to stretch two sizes up when stretcher maxes out at size 16. Thx.
The mega stretcher from Jasons.works :) It goes over your stretcher and lets you keep going.
Is it possible to put some kind of coating on the ring so it won't turn your finger green?
I make silver ones so that usually isn’t an issue. If you want to make the Cooper ones, there is no reliable long term solution. I always recommend silver for that reason.
I don't have any of this stuff handy.. I guess I will have to buy one.
Do you know any ring guard kits that would work with coin rings? I bought a size 11 on ebay but it's a tad bit too big. I never wore rings so I just measured based on what I read online but it didn't turn out the way I thought.😢
Not that I’m aware of
Can you do gold rings? Beautiful stuff!
Thanks! Yes I make gold eagles and krugerrands into rings. Check out my website www.changeyoucanwear.net
How much for would it cost me to buy supply the coins and what do you do with the leftover gold or silver?
It depends on the coins. Feel free to contact me through my website www.changeyoucanwear.net and we can get all that sorted!
What's a disposable jewelry wipe, is it weiman silver wipes?
Any silver wipe will work
Really like your video.
I had a old dime.
It looked blackish.
I started rubbing aluminum foil onto dimes surface.
Turned out to be a 1944 dime.
Why did the aluminum foil clean up the black dime to shiny.?
Nice video, thanks.q
Always welcome
Do the coins need to be silver, or can you use a standard mixed metal coin?
😊
Sure you can use non silver rings also!
At the end of the video were were you saying that coins that have been cast will split if you try to make them into rings? I was interested in making some replica coins from stainless steel using the lost wax process but it sounds like you're saying it won't work. Can you clarify please?
Yep unfortunately it won’t work. Struck coins have the strength to be bent and forged where as cast coins don’t have that strength.
