    My daughter and I recently started making rings from coins. We accidentally discovered that we could make the rings red and orange. We were annealing the coins rings so they would bend easier in a reduction die. We covered the ring in soap so it would slide down in the die to get smaller. We think it was the combination of soap and heat that produced the reds and oranges. Can anyone suggest other additives or ways to make other colors? We usually use quarters, that have a copper core. Thanks for your help!
