Double J Valued Member Canada 405 Posts	Posted 02/17/2024 4:25 pm I'm trying to save coins needlessly being turned into rings. Albeit the rings look good, he's using dated coins when dateless coins will do. They just need to be detailed enough around the edges though. If anyone has dateless coins 1936 25 and 50 Cents pieces and older please let me know. Would pay melt value based on the specifications Weight vs actual weight...ideally located somewhere I can physically pick them up. Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff

Double J Valued Member Canada 405 Posts	Posted 02/17/2024 9:21 pm Lol what's worse is I think he enjoys that it bugs me. I have some I offered to trade but the outer portion of the reverse isn't as good so he won't. But offered to buy mine...smh Report this Post to the Staff

I'm going to move it there to see if you get any bites.
