    i'm learning how to make coin rings, evaluate this one for me please

    after totally mutilating about a dozen clad halves, i tried my hand at a silver half. i'm not finished with this one yet, but its pretty close.

    the one thing i dont like about a benjy coinring is, the date is so small and in a location that ended up getting partially cut off due to the size of the hole. this one ended up a size 13 , and is just a tad loose on my finger.

    i bought a columbian half dollar, 1893. US minted for the chicago exposition. it will be my next ring, and i think it will make a good one.

    so check out the benjy ring here and let me know what you think of the toning, the finish on the ring, etc.


    PS....the last 2 pics are of the columbian half that will be the next ring made.
