A superb and classic example of an Edwardian gentleman's accessory, this quality sovereign coin case is crafted with a heavy 9ct gold filled casing. The circular design features fine, detailed engine-turned engraving on both faces, beautifully accentuating the case's domed shape. The hinged case opens securely with a smooth action via a side tab to reveal a fitted internal mechanism designed to hold a sovereign coin.
The piece is marked with the initials of the renowned maker ALD (A. L. Dennison), a highly respected name in high-quality gold and gold-filled cases. Its substantial feel and elegant craftsmanship make this a wonderful, functional piece of antique history.
Lovely condition, case opens and snaps shut securely.
