Gold on Silver Iceland 50 Aurar Shrimp Tie or Hat Tack

This stunning tie tack was made using a real 50 aurar coin from Iceland which is about the size of a US cent and features a shrimp. First, the coin was layered in pure, .9999 fine bright silver. Then, the figure on this beautiful coin was brought to life by highlighting it (by hand) with rich, pure 24-carat gold. This painstaking work turned the coin into a true work of art which was then hermetically sealed in a clear, hard acrylic coating to protect it against wear. The finished coin was then made into a tie tack. Shipped in a nice jewelry box.
This is a Special Order item that will be shipped separately directly from one of our jewelers.
