Engraved Coins, Love Tokens, and Coin Jewelry

Love Token Fashioned out of a Half Dollar sized silver coin.

One side depicts a ribbon or scroll around a palm branch with PALM / SUNDAY / 1882 engraved on it. the other side has the initials RCL intertwined and engraved above another scroll that has NEW LOWELL engraved on it. This may have been from New Lowell, Ontario Canada, but more likely was from Lowell, MA. Love tokens celebrating holidays are somewhat rare, but one for Palm Sunday is likely even rarer!

From the Steve M. Tompkins Collection.

Estimate: $ 175
