A pretty penny

What makes jewelry made out of money so cool? Seriously, smash a dime with a hammer, stick a hole through it and I’ll pay you $20 for it.

Maybe it sparks some internal contradiction, something that forcibly reminds us that money is no more than decorated metal and paper – and that we, ourselves, determine its ultimate value.

Plus, it’s pretty!

Either way, I’ve got a yen (hahaha) for these yen, by FreeForged. (Oh, and they’re only $8.99).
