RING: 1795 Small Eagle Gold Signet Ring 1.45oz . CUSTOM MADE FOR RARE COIN COLLECTOR -- HEAVY solid gold signet ring featured the reverse side of the 1795 Draped Bust Small Eagle $10. gold coin, one of the rarest and most valuable of coins.

The coin's reverse depicted an eagle with widespread wings, perched on a palm branch with a wreath in its beak. Like the original coin, the design for this ring was similarly hand carved. The ring was cast in heavy, solid 14k yellow gold and is a rare, unusual, and highly sophisticated ring. The ring displayed at right spent the last few decades in a safe deposit box. A solid gold ring, the top measures 19mm x 23mm. Size 11.
