- On today's Monday Meltdown, I'm melting constitutional silver coin rings and punchouts. They were sent in by Kevin Speaks, so please check out his channel below! Constitutional or "junk" silver is 90% silver, 10% copper, which you can see by the green flame in the video. So cool to see!

I have a long list of people who are requesting bars, so please be patient. I will be pumping some more out this week, and will be going down the list, emailing those in order to see if they would like one, as it is first come, first served.
I will also be putting up the odd pours, or custom pours on my Instagram, so please follow there too! My IG is @jwscoins.
Please email if you have a special serial number request, and type of bar you would like!
Thanks for watching!
All of my molds came from Amazon, where I made a list of stuff I use, or stuff I will be getting soon: www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls....

The coin rings look better than the bars
Ehh, one could say that I personally like big ol’ bars.
@Billy Mack, Texas Detective exactly what I thought.
@@johnboore2646 me too ;)
botched rings
dunno if you guys gives a damn but if you are bored like me during the covid times you can watch pretty much all of the latest movies and series on InstaFlixxer. I've been watching with my gf for the last weeks xD
Always pains me to see people melt constitutional silver, silver lasts forever but history doesn’t
HA!😂 You've got it backwards sir💡History lasts forever because history can not be changed, but everything else such as physical items can be changed😂😂👍
@@catherineharris4746 You're right, historians don't actually have anything to do because we already know what happened.
Trouble is, it is a crime under Federal Law to melt down United States coins for the silver content. That would include any coin rings that you showed. Just saying.
@@oldgeezer2007 nope it’s a crime if your doing it to extract the silver and sell it as is however it’s not a crime if it is done for educational or artistic purposes
I though 90% silver was legal to melt because it was taken out on circulation.
You had me fooled there for a minute I thought that was a new kind of drink LOL
Not Hot enough when pooring I had this same problem I added another props torch to my foundry worked a treat
Nice, hey I tried the other day to melt junk silver with a torch, but couldn't heated up enough and when I pour it into the ingots it keep doing mountain and it didn't spread out nicely, but with 99.9 silver it didn't happen, do you have a idea what it could be, or do you recommend me to buy what you are using? Thanks.
I'm not sure but I think it could have a higher melting temperature. So maybe just need more heat.
MORE HEAT
d u h h h . .
Silver looks and sounds so beautiful!
As far a the color I have always preferred silver over gold. That is why I liked my white gold wedding band.
You’re moulds should have been hotter,
and add some borax to the melt it will give you a much cleaner results
*This was so relaxing to watch. Thanks mate. :)*
Easy way for side lettering is wrap in an old leather belt and put in vice. Work smarter not harder JW
You're a genius Gump!! Thanks!
Fascinating. Thank you!
The bars might come out looking better if you heat the molds before you pour
They are always heated before, thanks for watching!
He clearly heated the molds first
I find 90% and .925 cools so quickly it's hard to pour a nice even bar. Even with pre heat torch on full blast while pouring.
Great job buddy boy!🍻👊 The sign looks great. Lmao😝
Like that beaver eh? Hahaha thanks bro! It looks great in the garage!
Nice job! Looks great! I will do this one day!
Hey I have some silver I want to fo this with...stupid question should I clean it first because some of the stuff is really tarnished
No need to clean it if it just has tarnish
Those sure shined up nice, thanks for sharing.
Silver is a real beast in regards of casting it into graphite forms…
And the junk on your fingers lol
I know what it is, an upside down dog.
Need a torch in a Vice blowing on the mold as it pours.
Put a separate torch over the molds WHILE you pour it, and it will help with the blackness and the bars will come out a lot more even on the top (in the mold) takes a little practice but it’s worth it. Try it and see.
So someone needs to hold a flame from a torch into the cast iron mold as the other is pouring the molten metal in the mold correct ?
@@thisisnotnonamep1406 yes!! It will help a lot! Good luck!
Just started making coin rings and will eventually have to do this. Thanks!
Always wanted to learn how to make coin rings, just haven't tried it yet, maybe one day
Like the old saying goes, "Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder", lol.
Nah. It's in the eye of the beerholder
Do you have any trouble selling homemade bars? Do buyers question the metal content and stay away?
Was also curious about this! I guess it depends on the buyer, if they have a machine or not!
@@rustybritches6747 Hard to sell to individuals. Even home refined 999 silver bars are hard to sell unless you have a following. Most do this for easy storage and most refiners pay less if at all for scrap jewlery but melt it into a bar they can weigh and assay, and they will buy it that way. Melting the coins was just stupid, they have a known weight and content, easy to sell and usually have a premium.
Hey JW! How are you brother! This is such a cool video, I will be joining your membership soon btw! I wish I could learn to pour metals, I have LOTS of copper and a nice amount of real "junk silver ( lot of sterling jewelry etc. Maybe ill the stuff to you lol! Proilly 20, oz of It could make a cool piece thats no doubt!!!
JUNK!? next time you better put constitutional on em! lol
But it's considered junk silver :)
wada still believe in santa too? theres no such thing as junk silver man lol
Hey bro very nice job on your pours well done good sir thanks for sharing kind regards Greg Lee.
any like to that water roller?
Cool process! I really enjoyed this vid! And pickles and beavers! Nice!
How did u take the copper out?
I'm getting ready to buy one of these devil forges. I want to do this exact same thing to melt down .925 silver. Any very important things you've learned since you've got the furnace?
Pickles are the beavers favorite food. Lol
Yeah the guy below me said it right, the metal is cooling to quickly try adding heat as you pour and into the mound when it’s poured to relax the metal in its new form
Reheating makes the metal relax, old trick by metal body workers of crashed cars
Molds are not hot enough...
10k BOOM congrats my friend 🤙
Another trip down Beaver lane....! I like the side lettering. Thanks for sharing the melts. Have a good day @ all.
Phillip Thiebjord thanks brother!!
know you know how the lone ranger felt trying to cast silver bullets
Sometimes we learn by doing.
Finally someone who understands! Haha thanks!!
That looks like slot of fun!
So much fun!! When I come home I'm bringing the forge, maybe we will have a forge party!
wow that was cool. GOLD SQUAD OUT!!!
Something just relaxing about watching this!
Wow they r very cool looking .. sweet video JW 💪🏻
That was awesome to watch,New Subscriber 👍🤩
Silver, ohhhh yeah!
Man, that's Awesome.
Was wondering how you got the black nail on your thumb then I seen the end of the video 😂
A1 FOR CLASS PORE MATE? FALL GUY'Z TOMORROW??
The tumbler didn't work 🤣😂 Nowt like manual graft mate 👍👍
Where can a person buy moulds
Wow very nice JW! Pretty cool stuff! You should call the 5 JUNK, the “Jabba bar”. Lol!
Great video my friend!!!
I love your name, and if you are who I think you are, YOU ROCK!! And if not, you rock anyways!!
@@JWsCoinsandHobbies I’m thinking that you do know! And JW Sir, I appreciate you my brother!!! I’m tired, could use a coffee... 😁
Can I use this process to extract coins with 50% silver?
I’ve been looking to get into this kind of hobby. Making castings from silver and such. Where do you get your silver from?
Various sources really, I go to my LCS and pick up "seconds" to melt lots of times, or it comes from 10 oz bars I got at the "dip"
Very cool bro. My little Devil Forge just turned up today. Can’t wait to use it.
Nice man! Can't wait to watch the vids!
Nice! Always harder dealing with the copper in the junk melts but still came out nice.
Hi
Thanks bro! Yeah that black got me, but still turned out alright!
You can avoid that with a really cool neodymium magnet trick
That was great!
Those punch outs are cool AF… I bet you could sell them as markers to golfers
How much silver coins did u start with
I would love to try that one day!
Super easy as long as you do your research!
Hmmm. Your little rounds look like my first test round/coin that I carry in wallet. What do they weigh? About 2.0 - 2.5 grams?
Not sure the smallest one in this vid, but usually the smallest I can pour is about 20grams
@@JWsCoinsandHobbies 20grams ? That's huge compared to what I'm trying to produce.
I'm trying to make $1 .999fs coins...
But that's only about 1.2 grams and my rounds are TINY....
So.. I'm going to start testing bimetallic with silver plug in a copper coin to get better sizing.
I did a 5gram round last night...but fucked it up when I stamped too hard and tried to press out the dents.
Oh well... I'm very new and I'll master it eventually.
I have no clue how to use cnc engraver I bought... Do I'm probably going to have to go back to original plan and have some dies made and use my press.
Cool video. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Gina!!
Great Vid Bro some fun captions BUTT ffs a lil bit more info Please! what did you coat / plate with ? is that pure silver bullets in water or nitric acid that you sealed and rotated ?!
That was pretty cool. Lol. Looked like it was a very hot dangerous thing for my clumbsy hands. Lol. Thank you for showing us . Nice video.
A dip in some pickle solution should remove all the black fire scale wthout the need to tumble.
Enjoyed!
Move your Crucible more towards the front of your kiln. Direct flame from your burner will shorten the life of it. They are not cheap brother. Good job on the pours.
Thanks for the tips!!
Stupid question, but how much more difficult is it to refine rather than just melt? Like how much more cost involved to get it to 0.99 silver?
There’s a channel called sreetips that you can watch too answer that.
I like silver
Don't we all!
Nice pickle shirt
Hah thanks!!! The link is in the description!
You should get some copper guards for a vice for your side printing
Thanks for the tip! Definitely going to have to try something
Slit a peice of copper pipe. Then pound it flat an cut to shape. Aneal it before bending around the jaws or it may crack. i used 1 inch to cover my jaws but my vice is a bit hefty
SWEET!!!!
That was very cool
Never trust a dude with thumb rings
Did a dude with thumb rings get your girl? What's wrong with thumb rings?
@@JWsCoinsandHobbies It looks douchy, confirmed by the "your girl" comment.
Would coin dip clean them up ? A did if nitric acid,
little muriatic acid & distilled water solution and a quick dip a rinse and polish cloth might work better than machine buffering.
Can you separate the copper from silver to bring the purity up to at least .99 fine or even ..93 fine ??
Awesome Silver
5:45 Same sound as lake ice splitting or skipping rocks across ice.
Very cool video
I love.that funky bar with the crazy corner add charactet
Thanks Jonathon!! I kinda like it too, but maybe a remelt later on
Is there a way to separate the copper from the silver?
Could refine it with chemicals to get it to .999 fine, but I won't be doing that any time soon.
you can boil it in sulfuric acid .Most say nitric .Yes nitric is faster but expensive . sulfuric will do it
I use a ultrasonic cleaner for cleaning all my junk silver before melting it's quick and easy and doesn't require any work and I use it to clean the dirt and grime off of valuable coins when I find them when out metal detecting or from the bank and what not cuse it doesn't damage them anymore. But I like that roller
How can I turn sterling silver into .999% silver? Or is that not a thing?
I think there are multiple ways to do it but I've seen acids used. It looked kindof complicated. Check out videos on RUclips it looks really cool watching the silver form like an ice crystal out of the solution.
Great video! Btw ...Jw is my Initials also!!
Best initials ever!!
Lol absolutely
You have the street and we have the liquor store called Beaver Liquors
In LOUISIANA AYY??
@@mrmarmellow563 buffalo ny
Nice video. I'm not what the purity of the silver was, but I would bet it wasn't over 85%. Lower purity of silver, can make the bars come out black. Your silver may have been hot enough when you took it out of the crucible, but you need to pour about 3 times faster than you did. The silver was hardening in seconds, because the temperature was too low. But still a good video!!
MATE, Them bars of silver came up a treat....!!?? And a Brilliant video to boot...!! I'm looking forward to watch the next few video's....☮️☯️🇺🇸🇬🇧🌈🌈 Stay safe world 🇬🇭🇧🇴🇬🇭🌈🌈🌈🍺😊👍🏴🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴🏴💣💣💥🔥💥....p.s with the edge lettering ,put yr silver ingot in a vice ,wrap the ingot in cloth so you don't scuff the silver ingot 🍺😊👍🏴🏴🏴
If you had a piece of leather or an old wallet to sit under your silver while stamping, it won't move as much.
Good job
100k views 🤯🤯🤯🤯 Congrats brother!
Thanks dude!!! Freaking crazy!!
Thanks for sharing learned a lot. Subbed. #TeamSHTF
This is why constitutional silver has a ridiculous premium now.
Cool
Hot stuff lol
Piece of leather and you can hold the bars in vise for edge lettering with no scratches on surface
I still yet haven’t melted I been so busy at work this weekend I’ll be pouring copper
I poured a couple copper ingots. Pretty neat to have around. I don't want to damage my nice bullion.
Use the vice for your edge lettering.
Cool sign btw 🙊🙉🙈😂
Hahaha yesssss 🦔 there's no beaver emoji so that will do
Did you get that vice from harbor freight? If so I have the same one lol
Yeah most of my tools in the beginning came from there. I did learn that the small anvil is only good for punching letters and numbers and not from stamping. Broke the foot right off
Interesting I think I'll just keep my junk silver coins as they are. Interesting to see how you do it,. I can see melting rings and other non coin related silver down into bars.
I have some old junk foreign silver coins that are also mixed with copper and I wonder about melting them down to " skim" the copper off and make mostly pure silver bars ? Or does it take a more professional smelting approach to do that ?
@@denp54z check you tube as there probably have uploads to show you how to do it. Personally, I would not advise doing it as unless someone has a way of measuring how pure the silver you have and it's weight, it is just easier to trade the junk silver as it is as just about everyone knows it's value.
@@denp54z Dilute Nitric acid boil, then cool and cement the silver out with copper. That will get you close to 99.9 if you want 99.99 then you have to take it to the next step and build a silver cell. Nitric acid is pretty dangerous stuff and takes quite a bit of knowledge to safely use and dispose of. If I wasn't versed in chemistry I would just cuppel it and get it close to 99% pure. The problem with that is you will need to have it tested to know the purity, so you would need someone with an XRF scanner willing to scan it. I wouldn't melt down coins as they are pre assayed and more likely to be trusted. I work with broken gold and silver jewlery so melting it or dissolving it in acid is no big deal.
@@PHUCKyoutube689 I have used a Nitric Acid solution to clean silver coins/bars of rust stains and other crud but never used it for anything else.
There is so much labor, time and materials used to "reclaim silver" it almost seems not to be worth it.
Yeah gold has a higher pay out but silver not so much.
I like my beaver shaved.
Nah.....a bushy beaver is the sign of a REAL woman!
what is called those things you smash in numbers and letters ? I want to buy :D
i would take it into my silver fold.
What can I do with my Junk gold Jewelry?
Junk gold jewelry would have to be chemically refined, and I haven't gotten close to that process yet :)
Well it wasn’t junk till someone got there hands them
nice. the machine proves to be useful.
Heck yeah! I love this thing!!
