1880 Peace Dollar in Sterling Silver

in photography •  7 years ago 

Is this silver? It looks more tarnished than the silver we're used to I guess. I love super old meticulously crafted stuff like this... do you think it was made by hand?

It is casted 92.5% silver :) and a 90% 1880 Morgan dollar. It is tarnished because we didn’t want to clean off the natural antiquing as we call it.

And yes absolutely handmade

Incredible! I have no idea how long something like that would take to make by hand... can you imagine working on something for months? Amazing.

I love the natural antiquing... it absolutely gives it character.
