Re: Silver Dollar

I got my old friend the sanding block out and sanded the trim to reveal the low spots, then took a small drift and tapped the back side lightly till the dent was up the sandded it again very lightly till all that was left was the Low spot again, then took a small punch and tap that low spot up till i could sand it flat and not have the pit. all taps and sanding was done very lightly, the aluminium is fairly thin. it dont take much to ting it back to shape. it took a couple of hours to do 5 spots. here's a pic of the center punch and the dimples on the back side.
