This is a Coin Knife made from a real Silver 1893 British Victoria Crown. It's one coin, split in half, with two folding blades; one a cutting blade and the other a nail file. Blades and spring are of 1/16" 440C steel. The coin is 38mm in diameter (about 1.5") It features an integral "bail" to attach to a keychain or necklace. It comes in a handmade leather pocket sheath. $275 US (SOLD) (including FedEx economical insured to US or Canada. $15 extra to most of EU)
The first English Crown, known as the Crown of the Double Rose, was minted under Henry VIII in 1526 of 22 carat gold. Silver Crowns were first minted in 1551. The new Silver Crowns were similar in size and value to other large European coins that were introduced in the 16th century, like the Spanish 8 Reales. They were all accepted about equally in international trade.
A beautiful little knife! Very slim - an easy everyday carry! You can see photos of some of the other coins I use HERE
