These real coins from around the world are layered in pure Bright Silver. Then each figure is highlighted, by hand, with pure 24K Gold. Each coin is hermetically sealed against wear in clear, hard acrylic coating.
Cut out coin earrings. First a small hole is drilled in the coin, then a very fine jewelers saw blade is inserted through the hole and worked around the coins design, (by hand) cutting away the background. Thus leaving the coins figure floating inside it's outer edge (rim). The figure is then selectively layered (by hand) in "Brilliant Gold & Silver". These coins are then made into unique pairs of earrings with Sterling Silver earring wires and placed in a nice jewelry box.
