Could this punch a hole in a quarter or half dollar?

RSK said on November 16, 2014 | EditNo I don't believe that the handle could take the pressure needed to punch through that hard and thick of a metal. I have used this device on what it was intended to be used on (sheet metals) and it works very nicely. For one, the punch itself is flat and has a centering point. Something as thick as a quarter would no doubt work better with a punch that was slanted so that the entire circumference of the hole wouldn't be met all at once.The handle and device in general are well constructed. It is simply not intended for that type of metal.

Not a chance. It's a very small hole it's less than half an inch in diameter.

Probably. Getting the stock for it is the hard part. Credit cards are around 1 to 1.5 ..I've used it. The edges have to be filed with a fine file or sand paper. A sharp knife edge will work.

No, I don't believe it would pick up a quarter unless you are very very very slow and careful. You might be able to with the suction cup attachement, but that's an additional $5 plus shipping and even then it's doubtful

I bought this specifically for making coin rings. It will cut through a modern, harder coin in a few good whacks, and a US penny, nickel and quarter will fit between the plastic guide and the die itself. Nickels are too small, quarters are just right for most mens hands. I've seen half dollars used, too. Should work even better on silver coins, since they are softer. It can be tricky lining it up just right, but before you punch you can check carefully if you are centered.

The main diameter is almost exactly the same diameter of a quarter... So it should fit in any opening larger than the size of a US quarter.

It will eventially bend but it would cut up your wallet first, and always remember that you would go to jail if a police offficer finds it on you. Going to jail insn't worth it. And you could slice yourself with it. My advice is don't buy it. I tried out for several functions and it's just plain dangerous!!!,

Not sure. The hole is pretty small. Not quite as big as a dime. You could put a straw in it though.

no, I don't think so. Bigger coins like 50 cent and a dollar will stuck inside.

IT will cut that deep however it is a half moon shape so trench might not be even

Yes it can, I am not sure at this moment but the hole looks 1/4 Inch or 6mm.

If you can cut a round hole in a thin piece of sheet metal and use a drill for 3 sheet metal screws you can

I have the 1/4 in and it does punch through but not well. It's most likely because the hole is too small.

No, many different check sizes and hole punches - 2 hole,3 or 4 hole... Check before you buy!

It will punch regular card stock no problem. You'd have to experiment to find out how many sheets it will do at one time.

No it can not......you could punch the holes then flip the paper over and punch them again, but lining up the holes would be a task.....other than that it is an awesome machine.

Absolutely. But keep it moving with direction change. Any hesitation and it will dig in.
