Each one of these “new & old” U.S. coins is first layered in pure ”Bright Silver“. Then the figures of each are highlighted and brought to life with rich pure 24K Gold (this gold work is done by hand). This breathtaking and exclusive work turns these coin into stunning and true works of art. Each coin is hermetically sealed “against wear” in clear, hard acrylic coating. . Each coin comes mounted in a gold filled “bezel” (frame), on an 18” or 24” rope chain and placed in a nice jewelry box.
