These hair clips are magnificent. The are featuring each 3 solid gold coins. Originally there were either blue or red (or both) beads arranged on the top bar.

Wow, I only found this close-up now. They certainly look old and well-loved. Very attractive and wearable. A small but fantastic and rare find, Peter!

I love these hair clips and have never seen them before.

Beautiful combination of gold and silver. I bit that the pieces are historical too. A fantastic pair to own.

Congratulations PETER
