There’s a lot of information on how to fold and reduce coins to make coin rings, but almost no information on HOW to actually go about and professionally finish and polish the thinner, non-reeded cut edge of your coin rings…

Now you can speed up the finishing process of coin ring-making and obtain the best most uniform high quality smooth, shiny, and even finish to the NON-REEDED edges of your coin rings by quickly getting rid of those unsightly, uneven, sharp edges with this Finishing AND Polishing Mandrel Set!.

No more having to use nail buffing files, sanding by hand, using steel round files or deburring tools to finish your rough coin ring edges… nothing else performs better in completing this critical aspect of coin ring-making.

This Professional set of 3 different-sized Finishing and Polishing Mandrels are designed to give your coin rings that professional-looking quality finish on the edge that was originally the inner part of the coin that is so hard to achieve and will finish and polish any coin ring from an approximate US size of 5, up to an approximate US size of 14.

The Kit comes with a precision German-made stainless steel shank complete with 3 interchangeable uniquely-designed abrasion resistant mandrel cones in the following sizes:

Small — (fits ring sizes of approx. 5-8),
Medium — (fits ring sizes of approx. 8.5-11),
Large — (fits ring sizes of approx. 11-14).

To change from one size to another, you simply hold the tapered rubber mandrel with one hand and twist the steel shank with the other…. no tools are necessary!

The advantage to using the finishing and polishing mandrels is that as the ring is held on tightly to the tapered mandrel that’s spinning while being attached to your power drill; it acts much like a small lathe, providing a much more uniform finish to the ring than can be achieved with either hand-sanding, using a nail buffing file, a steel round-file, or even a small rotary tool such as a Dremel.

*** TO BEGIN ***

1.) Determine which size Polishing Tapered Mandrel fits your completed coin ring, and slide the coin ring on to it.

2.) Place the Mandrel bit into your power drill and tighten.

3.) Adjust the coin ring until it’s well-balanced with no “wobbling” on the Mandrel with your power drill on, and then expand the Mandrel by tightening the Stainless Steel Phillips head set screw at the top which holds the coin ring securely in place.

4.) Begin on the outer edge of the coin ring with the coarser 100 Grit sandpaper and work your way around to the inner edge of the coin ring; making sure that ONLY the corner tip of the sandpaper is making contact with the unfinished inner, top, and outer edges of your coin ring to prevent damage to the rings’ detail. Take your time with this step; especially when you’re first starting out.

5.) Continue to work the inner, top, and outer edges of the NON-REEDED side using the finer Grits of sandpaper as you go; finishing with “0000” Steel Wool. You can also use the steel wool and LIGHTLY go over the inner and the outer detail of the coin ring before you either polish it with a jeweler’s cloth or after you’ve put a patina (antique-looking) finish on the ring.

6.) The final step is to use a jeweler’s cloth to both buff and finish-polish your coin ring.

Your ring will now have a highly-smoothed, rounded, and polished edge on the NON-REEDED side that is not often seen on coin rings!

Other materials needed: a power drill, 3 different grits of sandpaper (I use 100 Grit, 500 Grit, and 1,000 Grit), some “0000” Steel Wool, and a jeweler’s polishing cloth to complete this process. Those items can be purchased from Amazon.com; at a big box store like Home Depot, or any local hardware store inexpensively.

*** SAFETY FIRST ***
- Always wear safety glasses and work gloves.
- Always use caution when working with any power tools and electricity.
- Keep fingers, long hair, and loose clothing away from any fast moving parts.
