Coin Replica Charm Bracelet

This item is a vintage-style bracelet featuring a central charm designed to resemble an antique coin, possibly a Spanish colonial era piece, given the visible lettering 'HIS ... HISPA...' and what appears to be a crowned shield or crest emblem. The main charm is circular with a deeply textured, irregular border, giving it an aged, excavated aesthetic; it is primarily golden in color, suggesting a brass or gold-plated base metal for the coin replica. The coin itself exhibits intricate detailing, including the aforementioned lettering and heraldic design, with some areas showing darker patination in the recesses, enhancing its antique appearance. The charm is suspended from a double-strand chain, which is heavily textured and appears to be composed of interlocking links. The chain displays a two-tone color scheme: one strand is a bright, aged gold, matching the central charm, while the other is a darker, almost blackened metallic hue, possibly oxidized silver-tone or blackened brass. This dual-tone chain adds visual interest and a rugged, historical character to the piece. The construction suggests a focus on creating a rustic, 'found treasure' look. The overall condition appears good, consistent with a vintage item meant to evoke an older period, with intentional distressing or antique finishing rather than significant wear or damage. The craftsmanship, particularly the detailed casting of the coin and the intertwining of the two-tone chains, indicates a moderately good quality piece, likely mass-produced but with attention to stylistic detail. The style period is evocative of historical or 'pirate treasure' jewelry, often popular in costume jewelry or themed accessories from the mid-20th century onwards.
