Mounting a roman coin

DM addict · 2010-09-05 15:18:58

Afternoon all, Recently gave someone a roman coin as a gift, looking to get it mounted so it can be worn as a pendant. Any ideas on who could do this for us? Or indeed the best way to do it ourselves? The coin isn't perfectly round, as it's nearly 2000 years old. Any advice much appreciated. :)

Any decent Jeweller could do it however way you want it. You can buy coin mounts for keyrings/pendants etc. but they'd be just cheap looking. I presume it's not too valuable a coin, cause the likelihood is that you'll ruin it trying to mount it.
