(note to admins and IT folks....absolutely love the new layout and form. Congratulations on a very noteworthy improvement)
Just finished my very first Platinum Coin Ring for a friend of mine. Talk about stressful! Taking a one ounce Eagle Platinum coin and punching a hole in it. Platinum presents its own set of issues due to molecular makeup. Doesn't stretch well and then reset, doesn't polish well without another metal either coating it or bonded, and smears small detail if you use a buffer. Don't think I'll be doing another one any time soon.
******INDEPENDENCE DAY 2018 winner is:

I just had a critical piece of equipment repaired and in celebration of our nation’s independence am giving away a silver coin ring. It will be a 1964 or earlier U.S. quarter. Size will be between 4-12. All replies of “ Independance Day” (or anything else to get you in the drawing) from today forward will be entered. Winner will be announced after July 4th. Good Luck!
