Here is the link to the history, story and meaning behind this seemingly simple Mercury dime...in case you didn't catch my post the first time. If you didn't see the post...you wouldn't have any idea as to the meaning it has to me.

http://forum.treasurenet.com/index.php/topic,208767.0.html

Many of you responded to the post...pm'ed me...etc...and suggested I have the coin mounted in a pendant to wear always. Well....I agreed 100%...and told you then that I was going to do just that. I finally got it back from the jeweler yesterday...and am very pleased with it. He did a wondeful job creating it. Funny thing about the loop is ...that my chain is so big...we had to use a wedding band for the loop...otherwise we couldn't get the pendant to slide on it. ;D He laser soldered the diamond cut wedding band directly to the hand made 14k bezel...so this is truly a unique custom piece made especially for my priceless dime.
If any of you meet me and hunt with me next season....you'll see it around my neck...guaranteed....'cause it will be with me always. :angel7:
Thank you all for viewing and sharing this with me.

Looks fantastic bud, you were definitely meant to find that Merck!!!!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
 

The story and the piece are both worth the time, good job! Of course I look forward to seeing it one of these days around town!
 

wow bryce thats nice! i like how you used the wedding band with it. good job bud. willy.
 

That really turned out nice. You couldn't ask for a better keepsake to remember your mother by. The jeweler did a very nice job
 

Awesome!!! That is priceless, something you will always have and a great tribute to your mom. A feel good story if I ever heard one, couldn't be a better way to do it. No question your mom is proud to have a son like yourself. Great job.
 

Bryce,
That came out great! Fitting.

I know you don't need anything to keep your mom with you, but maybe it will make you feel even a little more connected.
I know your mom will be with you forever, but that is still a fitting momento!

Wishing you all the best!

Bryce,

That really looks nice.

It will be nice having that 'treasure', with all the special meaning it has to you, resting so close to your heart.

What a terrific way to honor your mom's memory.

Take care bud, and I'm hoping spring arrives early for you !!!!
