A coin necklace turns a simple disc into something personal. The flat face is made to be engraved, worn close, and layered, which is why coin and signet pendants have become a quiet staple. Loretana coin and signet necklaces are 925 sterling silver, rhodium plated or finished in real gold, and shaped to hold an initial or a date. Here is how to choose and wear one.
What a coin or signet necklace is
A coin pendant is a flat round or shaped disc on a chain. A signet is its squarer cousin, borrowed from the signet ring. Both share one idea: a clean surface that can carry a mark, which makes the piece personal in a way a plain pendant is not.

What to put on a coin
Keep it simple so it ages well. An initial, a name, a meaningful date, or a short word are the strongest choices. A coin worn daily reads best with one clear mark rather than a crowded surface.
How to wear a coin necklace
A coin sits beautifully on its own at the collarbone, and it layers well with a finer chain above it. Keep the coin as the focal point and let any second piece stay plain. For a full layering method, see how to layer silver necklaces.
Silver or gold
The silver versions are rhodium-plated 925 sterling silver. The gold coin is the same 925 silver finished with real 14K or 18K gold plating, not a gold-tone coating. Both engrave cleanly and cost the same, so choose by the tone you prefer.
Care
Wipe a coin with a soft, dry cloth to keep the face and the inscription crisp. Store it flat so the chain does not tangle, and keep it away from harsh cleaners.
