When I first spied this bracelet, I was immediately excited as I knew that I had just discovered a bracelet of engraved coins from WWI. As an advanced collector of worldwide military tokens, including British military tokens, I recognized several British military crests.

Often, on British military canteen tokens, the obverse prominently features a military crest, so I was very familiar with many British military crests. The seller"s description further confirmed my belief.

The bracelet is made of eight (8) silver 50 centimes French coins, connected by silver links. The coins are dated either 1916 or 1917.

All of the engravings are very intricate. The coins are relatively small, so it is hard to read all the details.
