Please note:
Rings set with coins are often post-war creations until the 1970s, combining numismatic value and goldsmithing. The Mexican "dos pesos" is a popular piece of jewellery, known for its high gold content (90%). This ring bears witness to a trend at the time to transform coins into decorative jewellery bearing symbols of prosperity.
