Antique Silver "Lucky" Sixpence Charm
$55.00
Antique 1911 British sixpence silver coin charm. The coin features the head of George V on one side and The Lion Passant and crown on the other.
The sixpence is known as the lucky coin. During the early 1600's it was customary for the Lord of the Manor to give his bride a piece of silver as a wedding gift. This was symbolically represented by a sixpence coin hence the rhyme "Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue, and a sixpence in her shoe". That tradition of the sixpence as a symbol of good luck continues today. Sixpence coins minted prior to 1920 are sterling silver.
It has a sterling silver ring so that it is ready to add to your charm bracelet or your favourite chain.
Add a sterling silver 45cm box chain with pearl charm to your order to wear this charm as a unique and special necklace.
The charm is 2cm in diameter.
All Vonk Jewellery is presented in a gift pouch with luxe ribbon. If you would like a gift message included please message me at checkout.
