Handcrafted Year Of The Dragon Motorcycle bell - Custom Made From Coins!

Description

The top of the Year of the Dragon bell displays an elaborate Chinese dragon, with the Chinese symbol for dragon. On the rim of the dome is inscribed “One Ounce” “.999 Fine Copper” & “Golden State Mint”.
On the skirt of the Year of the Dragon bell there is an attractive wheel design that depicts all twelve animals, along with their Chinese symbol, that is represented in the Chinese zodiac; the rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, goat, monkey, rooster, dog, and pig. 2024 is the year of the dragon.
The clapper’s inscription is the Chinese symbol for “blessing, good fortune, bliss”.
I make these coin bells by forming one of the 2 coins into a rounded dome for the top of the bell. I punch a small hole in the center of the other coin and form it to make the skirt of the bell. The top and the skirt of the bell are then soldered together. The punched out piece is utilized as the clapper for the bell. The bell gets a patina finish and then polished to a beautiful shine. Lastly, all of the connecting parts are assembled on the bell and secured tightly together so that they will not unscrew due to the vibration of the motorcycle.
-The Legend Of The Motorcycle Bell-
Legend has it that Evil Spirits have been latching themselves onto motorcycles for as long as there have been bikes on the road.
These Evil Road Spirits are responsible for mechanical problems and bad luck along the journey.
Legend goes on to say that by attaching a small bell on to your motorcycle these Evil Road Spirits will become trapped inside the cavity of the bell where the constant ringing drives them insane, making them lose their grip and fall to the ground. The power of the bell carries twice as much power to ward off Evil Spirits when given by another person as a gift.
Whether it's for a motorcycle enthusiast, a coin collector, or a dragon fan, this handcrafted bell makes the perfect gift!
