I'm wondering if it's considered illegal to craft coin rings. I've seen people make them as a form of art or jewelry, but I'm not sure if there are any legal repercussions for altering currency in this way.

    This means that altering a coin or bill in such a way that its value or appearance is misrepresented is against the law.

    For example, if someone were to change a one dollar bill to resemble a ten dollar bill, with the intent to deceive someone else, it would be illegal.
