Pirate Coin

I bought a pirate pin over the weekend. I had to create a mold to get the outward impression, but I think it turned out great. I initially used black polymer clay for the coin, and then used acrylic gold paint to rub over the outside. Gives the gold a tarnished look.

This makes me think back to Captain Barbossa's Pirate Loot, a cache we found not too long ago. This would have been a great addition to it.

I thought a pirate themed cache would be something really nice to create. Place some educational information about pirates and privateers of the old days. :)
