Liberty necklace

My granddaughter is visiting in California from Colorado. She really got into coin roll hunting while she was here and was wanting to take a silver one home so we had one mounted for her. She picked out the half herself from some we had found. She loves it!

Very nice looking necklace and a lovely looking young lady wearing it. Look out ME_CO, looks like you will have some competition when she gets home.

Competition? I better get after it then. Where did you get the bezel? Regular jewelry store or? I need a couple of them. Walker sure makes a nice necklace. Thanks for sharing, Mark

Thanks for the replies folks. Yes, we had it mounted at a regular jewelry store. They even shined up the half before they mounted it. Had it been a rare coin it would have mattered but this one isn't worth a lot.

Well, actually now it is a cherished treasure so it is virtually priceless, just like the little lady wearing it is to you................

Nice. My next batch of 40% is going to be cashed in for a 2 1/2 dollar gold indian. I need to find a gold bezel for my wife. I'll look at the link for some gold bezels.

Here's another place online with lots of bezels http://www.flintski.com/coin_bezels.htm

On my way home from the bank I stopped of at the lapidary/rock shop and got lucky. They had one just the way I wanted, moms silver '76 sure looks sweet in it too. Thanks for the reallity jolt- her Bday was the 13th when I gave her the coin I said I will have to get a bezel to put it in- wouldn't have happened near this soon without this post. HH Mark

Very cool!

Hey Packer, great post. A beautiful coin, on a beautiful young lady. A great way to promote the hobby and to really enjoy the artisic beauty of the coin design!

btw....the jewelry store soldered the bezel so it can't come loose. They figured it was a good idea for a "kids" necklace. They also advised her not to wear it in a chlorinated pool as that has some effect on silver. Just a few tips for anyone else that decides to do this.

Great job on the necklace. My favorite designed coin as well.

Awesome,
