In this post I share a 10kg gold coin I had made into a necklace...
Maybe someday when i have a few spare millions laying around but for now i had to settled for a small copy although its not really a copy since its not actually a coin it's just the same design and unlike a coin or round the pendant is hollow.
Im a really big fan of the queens beast series i especially love the completer that features all the beasts.
Right below is the coin this pendant is based on , this coin design comes in a few sizes and it also come in silver, but the pendant having a face value of 10,000 pounds means its based on the 10kg gold version right below
I was browsing Facebook marketplace when i stumbled on this beautiful necklace, its 18k gold at a little under 9 grams of weight and was supposed to be Saudi Gold like thats supposed to mean something to me.
I agree to meet near a jewlery store to have the item authenticated before purchase the jewlers had a look said it was real just that its made with the as little gold as possible.
Since i really like the design and the price was not too bad i scooped it up and i really like it the only issue is the chain is a bit small and i cant just slide it on and off my head like i prefer, also it looks like it has some hallmarks and i find out the the Saudis use Chinese characters....you learn something new everyday 🤣 the origins are a non issue for me really my only concern is the purity.
I also really like how they used as little gold as possible, gold is expensive and dense so its nice to make it "stretch" so you can get more realestate, if this pendants was solid it would have to be tiny if the weight (price) remained the same.
