Vintage Australian Sterling Silver WWII 1942-43 Coin Bracelet Collectible 21gram COIN SILVERA UNIQUE AND FINELY MADE WARTIME SOUVENIRHISTORY OF COIN BRACELETS:Made by a U.S. soldier stationed in the Pacific Theater, and training in Australia, in WW2. These were usually made for a loved one back home in the U.S.Coins were readily available and with many being made from precious metal, lent themselves to becoming jewelry. Soldiers stationed in Australia were paid with Australian money and there were a large number of American soldiers stationed in Australia. This was a training area and from there they then went to combat. How thoughtful it was for a soldier to send home a piece of this jewelry before going into combat. These sentimental items survived while many of these men did not.The bracelet is in excellent condition, except for it perhaps needing some polishing.These are truly one-of-a-kind.
