<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hookman, post: 7984246, member: 99642&quot;]I agree with everyone who says this was a coin that was made into a pin, by soldering a pin clasp onto the back. As others said, silver solder was used to do it.</p><p>I have many coins like this because I collect coins that have been made into jewelry. Not only pins, but bracelets, necklaces, rings, watch fobs, money clips, bolo tie slides, and other things.&nbsp; It&#039;s all silver and silver is my main focus, but coins-into-jewelry has become a fun source of collectables for me.</p><p>I wear some of it, but since most of it is made with women and children in mind, most of my collection is too small for me to wear.</p><p><br /></p><p>Please don&#039;t get your feelings hurt when people describe your item in a less-than-celebratory manner.&nbsp; Remember most of these guys have seen it almost all before.</p><p>Though what you have may seem very, very special to you, it is actually quite commonplace to most of us. As I said, I see this all the time.</p><p>Please keep coming back and posting pix of anything you find that you have questions about or need answers for.</p><p>We are all happy to help.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
