Thank you for choosing a handcrafted, laser-embossed brass piece. Whether it’s a milestone celebration or a personal keepsake, this coin is designed to last a lifetime. To keep it looking its best, please review the care guidelines below.
Ways to Display

- On the Go: Use the keychain holder to attach your coin to your keys or favourite bag as a unique charm.
Understanding Brass & Patina
Brass is a living metal that reacts to its environment. How you choose to enjoy your coin will change how it looks over time:
- Staying Brilliant: Your coin arrives in a clear protective case. Keeping it inside this case will prevent oxidation, and the brass will remain bright for longer.
- The "Antique" Look: If you remove the coin from the case (especially for use as a keychain), the metal will naturally react to the environment. Over time, it will develop a rich patina—becoming darker and more matte. This is not a defect; it is a natural characteristic of genuine brass that gives it a rugged, "antique" character.
Care Tips
- Avoid Moisture: Try to keep your coin dry to prevent uneven spotting or "green" oxidation.
- Restoring Shine: If your coin has developed a patina but you want the shine back, a small amount of metal polish (like Brasso) and a soft cloth will restore its original lustre.
Every mark and shade of aging tells the story of where your coin has been. Enjoy your one-of-a-kind piece!
