I am a keen metal detectorist as well as a stone carver and love getting the effect of the 'coin in the clod' in this collection. It's quite a challenge to get the depth and the effect of the coin still being in the ground and make the coin itself clear. But great fun to make!

Full description

Here is a love token coin carved out of a rough piece of weathered stone Ideal gift for a metal detectorist. Price includes delivery of this bulky item. See further details and size below.

A love token was a coin with the engraving smoothed down and the coin bent to prevent it being mistakenly spent. It would be given by a would be suiter to a girl to declare his affections. If you find one in the ground then his affections were probably rejected!

It was a particular challenge to show the wave effect of the bent coin and copied from a love token that I found.

This unique, one off piece of art, is hand carved using traditional methods with hammer and chisel. It is made from a reclaimed piece of stone from a local quarry which is dark and weathered around the edges and even includes a bit of moss.

This can be displayed outside or incorporated into a wall or garden feature etc. Alternatively some buyers have made an inside display around a fire place, office or conservatory. Note the size and weight of this item.

You can watch me carving some of my artworks on my Youtube channel Patlawstonecarvings
