.999 Silver "SILVERSQUEEZE" Bullion Ring
This one is for all you Silver stackers out there! These rings started out life as a 1oz Silver round bullion. I turned them into wearable bullion!
The OBVERSE features our beloved TROY and the REVERSE HAS “SILVERSQUEEZE” and some nice reeding around the edge. I generally make these with the REVERSE facing out as they make a cooler looking ring. Although they have a stamping that says 1oz these rings weigh only .75oz after the center is punched out. You do get to keep your punch-out because every little bit counts.
The process: After selecting the perfect bullion, a hole is punched through the center. A nylon wedge is then pressed through that hole to form a cone shape. From there it’s annealed and then into another Swedish wrap jig to straighten out the sides. More annealing before oversizing using a ring sizing press. After the desired oversize is achieved the coin is once again re-annealed before pressing the edges over to form a flat or slightly domed top of the correct ring size. I then acid etch them and lightly sand off the high spots. Final polish is done with steel wool to give it a shiny yet rugged finish.
These rings can be formed in sizes ranging from a size 10 up to a size 17, including half sizes. When you order just let me know what size you would like me to make it and also obverse or reverse facing out. If you have any questions email me at: Timothystrinkets@yahoo.com
Most of these are custom made to order from my available inventory of coins. If there is one I currently show ZERO inventory, please email me and Ill work on making one for you. Also most coins, quarter sized or bigger, can be made into a beautiful ring. If you have a special coin or are looking for a unique coin please let me know and I can try to track one down for you.
