A subtle statement piece with real history behind it.
This American dime tie pin features a genuine Roosevelt dime, carefully soldered onto a classic silver-plated tie pin and finished by hand in our Cambridge workshop. Understated and timeless, it’s designed for men who appreciate meaningful details rather than loud accessories.
The reverse of the Roosevelt dime - featuring a torch flanked by an olive branch and oak leaves - faces forward in this design. Together, these symbols represent liberty, peace, and strength, making this a particularly fitting piece for weddings and significant life moments.
Whether worn on a wedding day, at a formal event, or kept as a personal talisman, this is a piece that carries both story and substance.
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.

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.
