I have been shopping a bit here: www.acientcreations.com and I am looking for similar stuff elsewhere. Basically I am looking for gems and jewels in ancient "things". Anywhere I can purchase that? Heck even coins with embedded diamonds would work, as long as its old stuff and its worth more than just a penny.

Oh and does anyone know where I can find someone that allows me to have my coin(s) embedded into some kind of jewel (watches, money clips etc)?
 

Sorry, I don't.
Pretty sure that if I do ever own such a treasure, I'm gonna find the thing myself!! :wink:

Well, as far as your own coins go, any local jeweler can do it for you. Another way is to buy your own "findings" and you can easily set your coins into them yourself. You can buy findings such as money clips, keychains, letter openers, etc. You can also purchase coin "bezels"
in all the different size coins that you wish to mount. The bezels are used to turn a coin into a pendant without hurting the coins. The various findings range in price from real reasonable to fairly expensive, depending on the material you choose.

You can do a search on line to find these items. Also, I know of a company that has them for sale for the jewelry maker. It is the "Eloxite" corporation. Just do a search and you can browse their catalog for what you need.

Good luck!
 

Yeah that company is not that good. Is there really nowhere to purchase ancient artifacts that consist of more than just gold/silver? Something with gemstones would be nice. Did they have money clips 200 years ago?
 

Christies, Southerbys, estate auctions.

Do a search on "Vintage Jewelry", "Antique Jewelry" or "Ancient Jewelry".

Most folks are a little hesitant to buy or sell such items in the Internet. :wink:
