1945 Island Of Jersey Liberated copper coin ring with crisp details
Interesting coin ring made from this mint 1945 1/12 shilling (= 1 penny) bronze coin from Island Of Jersey, commemorating the 1945 liberation of the territory from German occupation during WWII.
Depicts the triple lion arms of England (outside) and Queen Elizabeth II (inside). Natural finish with polished highlights. Size is between 10.5 and 10.75 in US. Just a tad bit bigger from 10.5 but smaller than 10.75 – to be precise.This coin ring looks different than other copper rings I made from similar size copper coins. Main reason is this crisp detail on the raised writing / design. If you like it it is available (at the time of this post writing) at my etsy on line shop.

Coin rings that never made it but I wish they did!
Here are a few of some very nice coins that I managed to butcher to the bone. Yes, I wish I had more patience when I was working on those coin rings.

I know most of the time that it will happen but can’t stop myself from hitting my mandrel. Well, some of the coins are not even in their thickness and this will do it too. So maybe not entirely my fault but regardless it hurts to see it “go” when you see this beautiful coin ring forming …
