From our new range of Vintage Australian Coin jewellery, this is our Silver Australian Vintage Round 1966 Fifty Cent Coin Pendant, a lovely Sterling Silver pendant with a polished vintage Australian round 1966 fifty cent coin as its feature. Wearable on both faces, the pendant features the Australian Coat of Arms on one side and the late Queen Elizabeth II on the other.
The 1966 fifty cent coin released on Valentine's Day was minted containing 80% silver and 20% copper but with each coin containing 0.3416 oz of silver is wasn't long before the silver content far outweighed the value of the coin and it was replaced in 1969 with the 12 sided shape that continues to this day.
The pendant itself is crafted with precision from high-quality 925 Sterling Silver, ensuring lasting beauty and durability. It's designed to withstand the test of time like the worn feature coin at its centre. The rare round fifty cent coins used for these pendants date back to 1966, the year decimal currency was introduced in Australia.
