What a lucky find Liz! My boss recently gave me a bunch of foreign coins too, they’re just waiting for me to ‘play’ with them.

Thank you Rena, Joey and Canne. I found a date on a coin that corresponds to a friend’s birth year so I have made a bracelet for her birthday.

Love what you’ve done with them, must tell you that they aren’t that old though, some were still legal tender in the UK. can’t use them once they are drilled. My favourites are the first ones,, these are made from 20 pence pieces.

I just came across a bunch of old coins, too, and had decided to do exactly the same thing. Thanks for the push to get started. Yours are great!

What an exciting stash to create with, Liz! I especially love the earrings in photo 1 – absolutely gorgeous! And lovely variations in the jewelry styles.
