Vintage Coin Ear Rings (G1067)

Antique Victorian Austrian 1868 Silver 20 Kreuzer Coin Earrings Pair
A beautiful, matching pair of antique coin earrings crafted from two genuine 1868 Austrian Empire 20 Kreuzer silver coins. Minted under the historic reign of Emperor Franz Joseph I, these coins have been beautifully adapted into wearable history.
• Obverse: Features the laureate portrait profile of Emperor Franz Joseph I surrounded by the Latin legend "FRANC IOS I D G AVSTRIAE IMPERATOR".
• Reverse: Showcases the iconic crowned double-headed Imperial Eagle bearing the denomination "20" right on its breast shield.
The coins are carefully suspended on elegant base wire frames with simple loop fasteners. One coin displays a bright, sun-kissed golden-toned tarnish, while the other retains a classic dark, high-contrast antiqued patina—a stunning look that highlights the incredible relief work of late-19th-century European coinage.
• Coin Origin: Austrian Empire (Vienna Mint)
• Year of Mintage: 1868
• Composition: .500 Fine Silver (Coins)
• Coin Diameter: 21 mm
Excellent antique condition. Both coins display clear legends, sharp details on the double-headed eagles, and an honest, untouched historical patina. The earring wires are strong, aligned, and ready to wear. A fantastic gift for coin collectors, history buffs, or lovers of unique statement jewelry.
