The U.S. coin versions have long been favoured by collectors and were famously worn by several U.S. presidents, while Corum would go on to create Coin Watches using currencies from Mexico and other countries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThis 1990s example is crafted in 18k yellow gold and features a genuine 1899 $20 American Double Eagle coin, carefully split to conceal the quartz movement beneath while preserving the coin’s original appearance. A sapphire crystal allows the intricate relief of the coin to remain the focal point. The finely beaded bezel, subtle hour divisions and reeded case sides echo the coin’s edge, reinforcing the illusion that the watch is simply the coin itself. Slim black baton hands provide contrast without distracting from the engraved details.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe reverse displays the Liberty Head side of the coin with the 1899 date fully visible, exhibiting wear that reflects its history. It is fitted with a custom burgundy Epsom leather strap and its original Corum 18k yellow gold buckle, carrying multiple hallmarks and maker’s stamps including Corum branding and an Au750 engraving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eA charming blend of Americana, jewellery and watchmaking, with the historic coin remaining very much the centerpiece of the design.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Corum","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53624306598197,"sku":"FS0247","price":7400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1015\/3531\/8325\/files\/Corum-20-Liberty-Coin-Watch-18k-Gold-35mm-Quartz-1899-Double-Eagle-front-1__61315.png?v=1790029082","url":"https:\/\/fabsuisse.com\/products\/corum-20-liberty-coin-watch-18k-gold-35mm-quartz-1899-double-eagle","provider":"Fabsuisse ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
