Kew Pagoda 50p silver coin mount

UK 50p coin mount – Kew Pagoda

Suprisingly, this is probably one of the most expensive coins I have mounted.  The original issue of the coin is very much a limited edition.  Anyway, of the mount, the owner said

‘ Coin pendant received thank you . I am very pleased. It is more impressive than I expected . Your work is very much appreciated.’

The coin is held in a fine silver (99.9% pure) band that is burnished over the coin.  Fine silver is so soft that the silver blends back into the bulk forming a tight, secure , but completely non-destructive support for the coin.  Both sides are equally visible.
