Vintage 1970’s Coin Necklace

Vintage necklace featuring Peruvian coins, specifically "Un Sol de Oro" coins, which were used in Peru from 1931 to 1985. The necklace has a brass-toned chain and several coins of varying sizes attached as pendants. The largest coin, positioned centrally, displays the "Un Sol de Oro" inscription and has decorative metal fringe hanging from it. Smaller coins, also featuring llama motifs, are placed on either side of the central coin. These coins are likely made of copper or brass, given their color and the patina suggesting age. Such necklaces are often handmade and reflect Peruvian craftsmanship, making them popular vintage items.
