1962 Australian Sixpence Mixed Metal Necklace

🤎Features & What You'll Love

• Genuine 1962 Australian sixpence
→ A piece of Australia's pre-decimal history from the second last year the Australian sixpence was minted.

• A mix of metal tones
→ Silver, gold and antique tones come together around the old coin, giving this piece an unusual mixed metal finish.

• The history remains 
→ I've kept the coin clearly visible rather than disguising what it once was. The date, detail and signs of its previous life are all part of why I wanted to use it.

• Gold bail
→ The snake chain threads through a gold tone bail, adding another small touch of different metal tones.

• 70cm stainless steel snake chain
→ The longer chain allows the necklace to sit lower, giving all that mixed metal detail plenty of room to be seen.

🤎The Molly Made Story

There's something about the different metal tones in this one that I really love.

For me, the old coin is still the important part. It has already lived through more than 60 years of Australian history, and I've simply given it a new way to keep going.

Once everyday currency, now it's something to wear, admire and hopefully keep for many more years to come.

Not Mass Made. Made to Matter.
