    This one looks really old while the other one looks much newer.

    marie-ange. it is true what you say, the  other one is made on a coin from 1871 but it is not so old as the coin :-) i guess it s between 1960 and 1980.  this one is made on smaller coin, 1/2 french franc from 190? ( the coin 1900 till 1909 )i think the jewelry is from the period 1910   1920.
