  • Like this one very much, Peter. And, of course, would love to have a closer look to the Spanish coins if possible. Congratulations!

  • Dear Peter, it looks like a wonderful collection of historical coins and so well mounted. To lighten the overall picture I like the couple of protective coral and turquoise(?) and topaas colored bead. Gr. Ingrid.

  • A wonderful and absolutely gorgeous necklace.  I love the splashes of color from the amulets, the fancy Spanish coins, and how it transitions to the discs with filigree symbols.  A wonderful addition to your Palestinian collection.  Congratulations Peter!
