Dasspeld van twee munten met ketting c. 1940 - 1950

This is a simple, yet intriguing piece of jewelry created sometime between 1940 and 1950 by an unknown artist. It features two coins attached to pins, which are then connected by a chain. This piece is likely a tie tack or lapel pin, which were popular men's accessories in the mid-20th century. The piece, currently held in the Rijksmuseum, is crafted from silver and measures just under 9 centimeters long. The simplicity of its design speaks to the minimalist aesthetic of the period.
