Coin Necklace

This necklace features reproductions of Egypt Gold Dinars from the Fatimid Caliphate of Cairo, renowned for their high-quality gold and intricate inscriptions, placed along the chain alongside bold cuts from various coin types. Among them are striking fragments of an Ottoman Zeri Mahbub (“beloved gold”) coin from 1168 AH / 1754 AD, issued during the reign of Osman III.

Adorned with a row of round crystals and finished with a luminous pear-cut gold dangle, the piece balances brilliance with historical depth. At its center sits a reproduction of an Abbasi coin of Nader Afshar, creating a meaningful focal point with a textured, sculptural design around it.

The centerpiece is inscribed in Arabic:
الخیر فیما وقع
ضرب شیراز
بتاریخ ۱۱۴۹
(“Goodness lies in what has come to pass; struck in Shiraz in the year 1149.”)
