This small ball is made from 24 Australian half-pennies, and eight pennies, shaped and hand pieced together to form a metal sphere. The ball is heat treated to develop an aged colour and left unsealed so the ageing continues. It measures 8 cm (3 1/4") in diameter and weighs a little under 200 g. The mixed-penny ball stands alone and is not supplied with a timber support ring. If you wish to purchase a timber support ring see the options section in my shop. This stunning piece will be a most talked about decor item and each one is totally unique. If you have a specific year (1913-1964) and you would like it included please put it in the note to seller. If I have a coin (penny or half penny) with the date in stock I'll include it in your ball. Reduced shipping in Australia
