    Picked these up last month. Great jewelry pieces but it sure ruins the coin.
    This is an 1851 $1.00 Gold Stick Pin. It's not cleaned, just scratched from wear.

    Here's an 1853-O $1.00 Gold Stick Pin. A few scratches from wear with a little dark brown toning.

    I couldn't resist them for some odd reason.

    Stick pins were worn on lapels and hats back in the day.

    You sure they don't taste like coffee as they might have been used for stirring? ;)
