History that Dances. Elegance that Endures.
These aren’t just earrings — they’re a tribute to American grace, strength, and craftsmanship.
Each pair is handcrafted from genuine Mercury Dimes, minted between 1916 and 1945. These coins circulated during pivotal moments in U.S. history — the Great Depression, World War II — carried in the pockets of everyday Americans who held on to hope through hardship.
We preserve that spirit in every pair.
Lightweight and timeless, the dimes sway gently from handcrafted sterling silver ear wires. The design is elegant, minimalist, and unmistakably historic — perfect for the woman who loves jewelry with a story.

You wear a story.
These earrings whisper of eras past — and carry your legacy forward.
At Silver State Foundry, we are Custodians of American History and Craftsmanship.
We honor the dreamers, pioneers, and builders who made America what it is — not by preserving coins in dusty cases, but by forging them into jewelry that lives on through you.
When you wear one of our pieces, you're not just wearing silver or gold. You're carrying a piece of grit, spirit, and freedom that deserves to be remembered.
This isn’t fast fashion.
This is history — forged by hand, built to last.
