A delicate everyday piece with real American history behind it.
These American dime earrings feature two genuine modern Roosevelt dimes, each suspended from sterling silver ear posts with a ball and butterfly scroll back. Finished by hand in our Cambridge workshop, they’re designed to be light, wearable, and quietly meaningful - the kind of jewellery you can reach for every day.
The Roosevelt dime is a subtle but symbolic coin. Its design represents liberty, peace, and strength, making these earrings more than just decorative. Understated and elegant, they offer a gentle nod to American heritage without feeling bold or overbearing.
Dainty enough for everyday wear yet distinctive enough to dress up, these earrings move beautifully with the wearer and pair effortlessly with both casual and more considered outfits.
Whether worn alone or paired with the matching dime necklace, single or two coin, this is a piece that feels timeless rather than trend-led. When purchased with the matching necklace, these earrings are automatically discounted at checkout.
This piece can be upgraded with our Mintique of Cambridge luxury branded jewellery box, designed to complement the heritage nature of our jewellery and make the unboxing experience feel truly special. Perfect for gifting.
Coin: Genuine American Roosevelt dimes (pair)
Ear posts: Sterling silver with ball

These dime earrings make a meaningful gift for:
They pair beautifully with the single or double dime necklace for a cohesive, understated look.
As with all Mintique of Cambridge designs, this piece is made slowly and intentionally bringing together history, craftsmanship, and modern wearability in a form that feels personal rather than mass-produced.

Necklaces: The easiest way to work out your preferred necklace size is to find a necklace you already wear and like the length of. Open it and measure clasp to clasp. This will give you the total length. Bear in mind if you are ordering a double coin necklace this will add to the over all length i.e ordering an 18 inch Sixpence double coin necklace will result in an overall length of 18 inches PLUS the width of the 2 coins.
Rings: Please place your order with your best guess. I always double check your ring size before sending your handmade ring to you - find out more about my Perfect Fit Method here.
