An American Mercury Dime Judaica Amulet, 1926
About the Item
This unique amulet, crafted from a genuine 1926 Mercury dime, reflects both personal faith and creative craftsmanship. The original owner transformed this piece by carefully buffing out the reverse side, creating a smooth, polished surface upon which a large Hebrew letter "ה" (He), a sacred symbol representing the divine, is meticulously engraved.
The "ה" is framed by a beautifully hand-etched, undulating circular pattern, adding a sense of movement and spiritual energy to the design. This thoughtful detailing elevates the coin beyond mere currency, transforming it into a meaningful symbol of protection and connection to faith.
A small hole has been delicately drilled at the top, allowing the amulet to be worn around the neck, keeping its spiritual power close to the heart. This inventive repurposing of an American classic coin captures both the personal devotion and artistic vision of its creator.
