We can also do "Custom Shrinking"

Although I usually shrink quarters to 70-75% of their original diameter (slightly smaller than a US Dime), I can adjust the degree of shrinkage upon request. I can also "custom shrink" many other types of coins or tokens. Over the years, collectors have sent me Silver Eagles, European coins, Asian coins, bimetal coins, transportation and tax tokens, and even gold bullion coins to "shrink to order". Whenever possible, please send 1-2 spares of any uncommon coin to be custom shrunk so that I can "tune" the process for your coins. This also allows for potential process dropout - coin shrinking is still somewhat of an art...

Please contact us me to discuss your custom shrinking requirements

NOTES:
1: US Cents minted after 1982 do NOT survive the shrinking process - they simply explode in a shower of molten zinc droplets!
2:  Steel Cents (1943) don't work either. We get good results for bronze coins (1910-1942) and best results with Indian Head Cents (they really look great!). 
3: Copper-nickel alloy coins (nickels) don't shrink as well as clad coins - diameter will be ~90% of the original coin
4: For custom shrinking of uncommon coins or tokens please send 1-2 spares of each coin so that I can "tune" the shrinking process. This also allows for process dropout. Shrinking is still more of an art than a science....
5: Proof coins simply don't shrink well at all - in fact, they turn out really ugly! Circulating coins are recommended. 
6: We normally supply Denver Mint coins for state quarter sets unless customer specifies otherwise.
7: The higher surface features on certain coins can create internal imbalances during the shrinking process. This causes Kennedy's bust to have a small concave indentation by his left ear and a matching convex projection of the shield on the reverse side. Older style (pre-1991) Washington quarters and copper Lincoln Cents (1942-1982) tend to push out the portrait, creating a matching concave region on the reverse side of the coin. This is an inherent  property of these coins and is unavoidable. 
8: Canadian quarters newer than 1995 are made from nickel plated steel. These only shrink about 1% due to their poor electrical conductivity, so we do  not offer them.
