This is really very wonderful.
I agree with Toya! I am also fascinated by the Napoleon coin, too bad it cannot be seen well, it seems almost crazy to have a Napoleonic coin!
verry beautiful and rear piece. almost the same as Patricia one. splendid
Yes, it is!. I have been fortunate enough to see the real thing and it is a wonderful piece.
which one is Napoleonic coin? I can not see? Is it at the bottom? this is a nice one.
Hi Linda, the two coins on the bottom are the Napoleon III ones see it in this link http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces1145.html
Weather if the yellow bead is amber I am not sure, the green one is not malaquite actually I think it might be plastic. In this picture you can see the small leather grigri under the red glass beads in the center.
