Things that come out: Coin Necklace

A long time ago, my grandma brought back an Italian lira coin and had it made into a necklace for me.  This Christmas I returned the favor by making her a necklace made out of coins from the Cook Islands - her favorite vacation spot.  Not every 83 year old woman can sport a male fertility figure around her neck, but my grandma pulls it off with great flare.  I found the coins on Ebay, the gold bezels from a coin shop, and the silver chain from the jewelry mart in downtown LA.
