Buffalo Dancer is a shop in Taos, NM owned and operated by Dylan Hopper. Dylan is a member of Taos Pueblo tribe. Buffalo Dancer was started by Dylan's father in 1974 and is still going strong today with a staff of 4 Native artisans including Dylan himself. His cousin Lawrence Archuleta does most of the soldering and coin jewelry. 

These earrings are created from authentic Mercury Dimes and surrounded by coral or turquoise. The dimes are 'coin' silver (containing 90% actual silver). Both sets are signed by Lawrence.

The coral set has coins from 1940 + 1944
The turquoise set has coins from 1942 + 1994

These earrings weigh approximately 16 grams per set (8g each)
