Silver Dollar-Peace
Mastodon Collection. Steely smooth polish is accentuated by a marvelous strike showcasing full hair and reverse rays. There is little is to critique in the way of scuffing, for nothing shows except one scrape between the “E” and “P” of back motto. Fingerprinting is somewhat distracting on both sides.

I have to admit, this one won’t be everyone’s cup of tea but you will have to admit that it’s pretty darn cool! The center has a precious orangey marquise coral cabochon. There is a freeform, bezel set fossilized ammonite stone and the piece is completed with a elongated cabochon identified as rutilated quartz. None of the stones have indications of polymers or dyes, Stone Group Laboratories report #240827R-SJ. This piece has a pin on the back and also opens so it can be added to chain. Dimensions 4" x 1.5", 26.2 dwt.
