Vintage halfpenny earrings - ref H251
Earrings made using real vintage British pre-decimal halfpenny coins, on surgical steel ear hooks and using sterling silver jump rings.
As these lovely earrings are made using genuine vintage coins, I'm photographing each pair of earrings separately and individually - the pair you see in the photograps will be the pair you will get.
These coins are dated: 1920, and the second is of similar age but the actual date cannot be read. This pair of coins are well worn through age - I think that these time-worn coins make particularly beautiful earrings.
The monarch is George V
Coins of this age were made from bronze
The diameter of these coins is 25mm (1 inch)
