...so i might as well add another post.
A few weeks ago, or was it months? The usual topic of "Coin Bangles" came up again, with the usual debates.
I posted that i was going to find out the 'truth' behind the 'myth' on my next trip.
Well here's what i got:
The coin jewellery IS made from coins BUT (and there's always a but) they are not TOTALLY made from coins. A small amount of $2 coin is in each piece of jewellery and the rest is made up of other metals like copper.
I am happy with this answer, it makes sense, as i pay rp10 000 per bangle and couldnt see how it could be made for the price.
Now lets see if everyone else is happy with this answer ha ha....
Now i am going to try and get to sleep....again....if not JBR Part 2 will be posted before planned.
