Lucite Cube Paperweight with Embedded United States Coins

This decorative desk accessory consists of a solid, transparent lucite (acrylic) cube with three-dimensional depth, measuring approximately three inches per side. Suspended within the clear resin are two genuine United States coins: a silver-colored Kennedy Half Dollar and a copper-colored Lincoln Penny. The Kennedy Half Dollar is positioned centrally and appears to be from the mid-1960s to 1970s era, while the penny is placed at an offset angle below it. The refraction of the lucite creates multiple ghost images of the coins on the interior facets of the cube. Small circular rubber or plastic bumpers are attached to the bottom corners to prevent surface scratching and provide stability. The lucite is in good condition with high clarity, showing minor surface micro-scratches consistent with age and handling. This style of novelty paperweight was particularly popular in the 1960s and 1970s as a gift item. The craftsmanship features a seamless casting process with no large internal bubbles, indicating a quality manufacturing standard for mid-century office decor.
