This striking Trident Coin Necklace will be a conversation-worthy addition to your jewelry collection. The genuine one-cent coin is from the sovereign island nation of Barbados, which also features a trident on its national flag. The trident head, shown removed from its staff, signifies Barbados' break from colonial rule, and its three points represent the principles of democracy: government of, for and by the people. The coin was minted from 1993 to 2007 and also features a garland wrapping around the trident and forming the letter "B" for Barbados. The bronze coin is secured in a gold tone bezel and hangs from a 24-inch gold tone rope chain with a lobster claw clasp. A Certificate of Authenticity is included.
