What is a pendant ?

A polished coin in a coinsetting can be used

either for hanging on a gold bracelet in which case there is no chain but a holder with a coin in it and an eye to the holder and it is hung on an armbracelet

or it can be used strung on a thin goldchain and hung around the neck

I figured out you call a bezel the holder with or without a coin in it

A dealer I know has an 1882 $3 in a bezel.  What a waste of an otherwise great coin. :'(

Newby on ebay Belgium targeting Americans
Sells to Verengide Staten = USA
Considering the coin is allready brooken and considering it may never arrive this is a prime candidate for a bezel mounting
(just joking dharmaeye  :D)
