Buffalo Nickel Beads

Price is for one bead. Beads are sold individually.

These lovely beads are made from two buffalo nickels. Heads on one side and tails on the other. They are formed into domes, sanded for a good soldering surface, and then soldered together using silver solder. Then holes are drilled. You can choose 1.5mm or 3mm. Good for cables or small 3mm chain. Or if you want them side/vertical drilled for earrings so they face forward. Those are best drilled at 1.5mm in order to not drill into the face/back edges of the coin.

Each bead is about 19-20mm diameter and 11-12mm wide. 

Why are they so expensive? Yes each bead is only two nickels, but they are collectable, hard to get, the labor and love that goes into making each one and the final result is worth it! 

Made to order. Please allow 3–5 business days for production before shipping. Delivery time is additional.
