Templar Knight Hobo Coin Necklace

THE STORY

A vow carried in metal.

Founded in the early 12th century, the Knights Templar became one of the medieval world’s most recognizable military orders. Their cross was more than decoration—it marked discipline, allegiance, and a life shaped by an oath.

This openwork coin design places an armored Templar at its center, sword lowered and shield held ready. The cutout silhouette reveals every detail against the wearer, while the 1879-style border gives the piece the character of an aged relic without pretending to be an original historic coin.

WHAT IT REPRESENTS

Discipline

The knight represents strength built through practice—the resolve to hold your ground when comfort would be easier.

The Oath

The cross makes commitment visible, reminding us that conviction carries weight only when it is lived.

Resolve

Sword and shield hold action and protection in balance: the courage to move forward and the restraint to know what is worth defending.

For those drawn to medieval symbolism, dark history, and jewelry that carries a clear sense of purpose.

Craft

Hand-cut from a modern hobo-style coin replica and individually polished by hand. The silver-plated copper surface is designed to develop a unique vintage patina over time — making each piece a personal relic rather than a mass-produced accessory.

Care

The four-prong open frame holds the coin without drilling or permanent alteration. The coin can be removed when necessary. Avoid opening and closing the setting repeatedly, as repeated movement can cause metal fatigue over time.
