Very cool. A jeweler can replace the missing stone.
Can we get a pic of the reverse?

That's very cool.
Was that coin hand engraved or was it struck?

A great talent, whose presence on eBay I miss.
He would occasionally offer one of his creations for sale on eBay and I always enjoyed his work.
A true artist. I don't know why he stopped his offerings but it did somewhat line up with the flood of Chinese knockoffs.
Been watching this FH dollar for months now...kinda thought I'd pull the trigger, but other cool (cheaper) things keep popping up..
Glad to see a few others think its kinda interesting too!

That looks like it might be an ex-Richard Burdick piece. If not, maybe it'll be a future one.

This is a cool piece!
It's all about what the people want...
NICE! it is the ever-elusive ampersand over horizontal ampersand!
It was hand carved by Rob "deadmanjeweler" Morris.

Yea, no doubt...Check out the dinosaur cutting on the stones.
Really cool piece !
There is something very Masonic about a green crescent moon and a red ruby star. I suspect there is a link.

Interesting piece... It does follow the Masonic theme...Cheers, RickO

Wow, I love that trade dollar locket / picture holder.
Is it a family item or a curiosity that you picked up somewhere.

I always liked this one (not mine).
I bought it thinking it was a contemporary counterfeit, not noticing the seam around the reverse rim. I posted it here on the forums in this thread: https://forums.collectors.com/discussion/1008759/my-new-trade-dollar-even-cooler-than-i-originally-thought
