Coins from the Past

Just lately a friend of mine ask me to make her a coin ring, pendant, and earring contain the 10 shekels of New Israeli coin and I've told her that it is kind'a weird because of its usage for todays monetary fund and as a designer I encourage her that is it better to use antique old coins even tokens to make it more unique but its her choice of design and was very insistent that she will have new coin jewelry set....



This is the ring and pendant of the new 10 shekels israeli coin two tone coin of silver and gold color and it turns out beautiful because of its design and some friends just order more.

As an alternative for the new coins I've made myself an old coins an example to my customers and they loved it as well. Photos below are my old coin ring and Lucky Winner Token pendant.



Which is better??? I think they looks great depends on the taste of the wearer the most important thing is to feel and enjoyed what you wear.

Cheers,

Grace
