COIN PILL CONTAINER C. 1780


Price: $ 850.00   (Personal Items » Rock Hudson)

This is another fun find.

I have seen these kind of things before.   They take a coin, cut it in half, and make little containers out of them.  It is a real coin!!!!
This is one Rock Would carry when he traveled.  He wasn't really a "pill taker", but he did take aspirin.  He always had them with him.

Great person to have around if you ever got a head ache!!

I think the coin is French,  I may be wrong.  It is stamped with a date, 1780.  It is in excellent condition and stays closed very well.

Once again, I didn't polish it or play around with it.  It is as I found it, minus the little sticky tape glue on the front.  I rubbed that off with my thumb.

I imagine it is silver like most coins of the day, though I never had it tested.

MEASURES:   1.6"  DIA. X 5/8" THICK.
