<p>[QUOTE="TokinTurtles, post: 4435207, member: 112214"]I felt the same on that issue. I watched a video of someone making a ring out of a quarter and it flares and distores the size. Because of the rim being flared out by the spoon it will gain a thickness. And it takes like 2.5 hrs of steady whacking on the coin to get it flat nm out enough. My guess is this coin probably had maybe 30 min of pecking on it and someone gave up. I guess I'd have to watch a detailed full coin to ring progress video or try it myself to see if this is what is going on. I dont have a tool to measure the dimensions but it appears visually that only the rim is thicker not any of the recessed coin. But then again all of the edges are really sharp and neat. It's only in that one pic I took u can see the ridges of the coin and tbh that detail was taken in a pic by random chance not like I linked to up or knew it was there. This group has been amazing g and very helpful. I'm sure some of our elders and experts here can shed a little light to this.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
