On the outside, it’s understated. On the inside, it’s history.

This sterling silver band is smooth, minimalist, and undeniably classic — but hidden on the inside is the legacy of a pre-1920 British Shilling coin.

Every ring is handmade from a genuine sterling silver Shilling, with the coin’s original design preserved on the inner edge — a private detail only you’ll know is there. It’s elegant. Meaningful. One of a kind.

A British coin with a quiet story

Before decimalisation, the Shilling was a cornerstone of daily British life — used in shops, ration books, and pocket change for over a century. Before 1920, they were minted in sterling silver, and today they make beautiful heirloom rings.

💡 Did you know?

  • The Shilling was once nicknamed a ‘bob’ in everyday speech
  • These coins featured monarchs like George V and Queen Victoria
  • Many shillings were used during WWI and the rationing years — worn and carried by ordinary people

The creation process

Each ring takes several days to make, with meticulous attention to detail at every stage. I only use genuine, publicly circulated coins, rejecting any that are overly worn or damaged by time. 

Because of the handmade process and natural variations in minting years, each finished ring may differ slightly from the photos shown — that's what makes yours completely unique.

Your ring will arrive in a beautiful presentation box, ready to gift (or keep for yourself!).

A simple band with a secret past. Add it to your basket — or explore more meaningful designs in our Coin Ring Collection.

How do I choose my necklace length or ring size?

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.
