These Are the Coin Necklaces Worth Spending Your Hard-Earned Dollars On

February 4, 2021

Let’s face it: there are lots of necklaces out there. From chunky chains to swinging pendants, there’s a reason why layering them has become so popular. Our latest obsession? Why coin necklaces, of course. We have Versace to thank for bringing this type of jewelry to the forefront. After all, the brand’s Medusa medallions have become truly iconic. But the Italian fashion house is far from the only label offering up serious coin options. Often at more affordable price points. If you’re thinking all coin necklaces are the same, you’re mistaken. There are all sorts of variations on the trend. Like lariat versions, pearl accents and different-size links on the same chain. You can also purchase sets that make layering easy. (In other words, no previous Instagram influencer experience required.) Scroll through the slideshow above to see the best coin necklaces guaranteed to up the ante on any ensemble.
