Oh What You Can Do With A Coin!

Here's an example of an 1851 $1.00 Gold Stick Pin. The coin is a Type 1 and despite being a VF-XF coin, this is strictly Details now. Some of these coin jewelry pieces are just fascinating to me. It's a shame about the coin but the love someone put into making this for someone special in their life is something I'd like to see more of today.

Interesting and these have a history all of their own.

 

+1 if it did get slabed like this it would be really interesting.

 

Don't laugh, I've seen some weird things slabbed . Hey that would be a good post .

 

I can't help wondering whether that reverse once bore a mint mark.

 

I know as I had the same thought. I looked very carefully and with a magnifying glass but I couldn't see any signs of one every existing.
