Welcome to Ann's coin jewelry!

Hi, my name is Ann and I have collected coins with animals on them for over 15 years.  One thing leads to another, and I now hand-paint these interesting world coins, and make them into jewelry.   The end result is a surface on the coin that is colorful, shiny like a glass surface, and very durable.  As most artists do, my process is always evolving as I experiment and find new things that work well. Check out the "Demo" page to see the process.
One of the most interesting and fun parts of using World coins is that each coin has a story, and many come from countries that you don't often hear of.  I found a new interest in geography and history learning more about the World Coins in my collection.  See my blog to see some stories I have published in the past, and sign up for my newsletter below to get them sent to you automatically.  By the way, I only send them every month or so, only when I have some worthwhile information to share.
