You will need:

- permanent black marker
- Round Nose Micro Pliers
- Jewelers Flat Nose Plier
Place your penny on a hard surface.
Get your 36 Piece 1/8? Letter Number Stamping Set
Decide where you want to place your words. Gather the letters from the stamping set. Start with the middle letter and strike down hard with your hammer. Repeat until you are done.
Fill in your letters with permanent black marker. Wipe away excess marker with rubbing alcohol.
Secure the penny with a vice and use a centre punch (we used a hammer and nail because we didn’t have a centre punch) to mark the hole.
Now it’s time to fire up your drill!
Add jump ring.
Add key ring – or add chain. That’s it!
