Materials You’ll Need
Before we get started, let’s gather the materials you’ll need:
- A hammer
- A nail

- A ring mandrel (optional)
- A selection of coins
Step 1: Choose Your Coins
The first step in making a money ring is to choose the coins you want to use. You can use any coins you like, but keep in mind that larger coins will make a larger ring. I prefer to use pennies because they are readily available and easy to work with.
Step 2: Flatten the Coins
Once you have chosen your coins, it’s time to flatten them. To do this, place the coin on a hard surface and use a hammer to gently tap it until it is flat. Be sure to tap around the edges of the coin as well to ensure that it is evenly flattened.
Step 3: Punch a Hole in the Center
Next, use a nail and a hammer to punch a small hole in the center of each coin. This hole will be used to thread the coins onto the ring.
Step 4: Thread the Coins onto the Ring
Using a pair of pliers, thread the coins onto the ring in the order that you want them to appear. Be sure to thread them through the holes you punched in the center of each coin.
Step 5: Shape the Ring
Once you have threaded all of the coins onto the ring, it’s time to shape it. You can use a ring mandrel to shape the ring, or you can use your fingers to shape it into the desired size and shape.
Step 6: Wear Your Money Ring with Pride!
And there you have it – your very own money ring! Wear it with pride and let it be a symbol of your financial success and prosperity.
