<p>[QUOTE="PersianGuy, post: 779552, member: 17820"]When I was a kid, my dad, who was an interior designer and antiques collector gave me this "Sword" made of some old (and quite worn) coins stitched together. I don't think he ever told me where they were from, and since he passed away when I was 15 I can't ask him now. I would really like to know where they are from, how old and if anyone knows anything about this art form. He had other things framed made of these same type of coins. They are mostly well worn, some corroded, but I really love this thing. Anyone know anything? Thanks!</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.mofrad.net/dadcoins/001.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.mofrad.net/dadcoins/002.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.mofrad.net/dadcoins/003.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://www.mofrad.net/dadcoins/004.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.mofrad.net/dadcoins/005.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.mofrad.net/dadcoins/006.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
