Though I wish it wasn't holed, I feel good when I wear it! Everyone post pics of their favorite numismatically involved wearable display pieces. Doesn't have to be amazing, or aesthetic; good, bad, or ugly... Show 'em if you got 'em! (No coins removed from jewelry, please. Only actually wearable items, thank you!)
My 1998 platinum 1/10 oz eagle. I wear this daily. Also shown is my 2011 1/10oz ASE ring. I got it last year as a gift to myself. Its my sons birth year.
nice. go with the necklace cazkaboom... the details are nice despite the hole and it will wear so fast as a keychain fob Very nice pieces swagge1. If you had them set in there I thank you for choosing bullion coins to bling it up!
I thought this was pretty cool (I don't own it) but it is listed on ebay and is key for an antique pocket watch.
The Buffalo Nickel necklace my Nana wore and gave to me a few months before she died. I'll never take it off.
Well, I don't 'wear it' but it does accompany me as a pocket piece on my mundane excursions into the outer world of everyday life........
I think that necklace is pretty awesome myself! It must be difficult to keep circular. Between my kids, the dog, what have you, if I was wearing it it'd probably look like a buffalo sammich.
I agree, but take solace in the fact that I, for one, never buy something like this new. I only repurpose the past mistakes of others.
Oh, I feel a bit better now. Okay, fine, I'll admit it, I have an Indian Quarter Eagle ring. My mother gave it to me as a gift when I got married. I got two things that I don't like that day.
I remember those horseshoe Lincolns from my childhood. They sold them at the gift shop at the Buffalo Zoo, and Niagara Falls Aquarium.
I had/have shoehorns and other stuff. The coolest I ever had was a bracelet I got in a lot that was 8 capped bust half dimes with the reverses engraved. My cousin's wife liked it so I gave it to her. I prefer not keeping damaged coins around much, since they make you a little sad, especially earlier pieces.
I bought this necklace from the US Mint for my wife back in 2000. I like it because it respects the coin and doesn't deface it in any way. Here's a photo from an eBay auction where someone is selling the same necklace: Credit to the owner of the photo: http://www.ebay.com/itm/180699248113
