This ring is handcrafted from the .999 fine silver Don’t Tread On Me Coin. We start off with a high-grade coin. We then punch a hole perfectly in the center. From this point, we shape the coin from a flat disk into a cone shape which is later refined into the shape of the ring. All of this is done by hand. It is a timely and tedious process which requires heating the coin multiple time to allow us to shape it in a ring. Once the ring is the shape and size, we then clean the ring and apply a patina finish to it then polish it. Our customer loves these rings.

If you are not happy with the fit please contact us and we will make sure you have the fit you want. The “Don’t Tread On Me†coin pays homage to the Gaston flag.
