A type of ringed cross, it became widespread through its use in the stone high crosses erected across the islands, especially in regions evangelized by Irish missionaries, from the 9th through the 12th centuries.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA staple of Insular art, the Celtic cross is essentially a Latin cross with a nimbus surrounding the intersection of the arms and stem. Scholars have debated its exact origins, but it is related to earlier crosses featuring rings. The form gained new popularity during the Celtic Revival of the 19th century; the name \"Celtic cross\" is a convention dating from that time. The shape, usually decorated with interlace and other motifs from Insular art, became popular for funerary monuments and other uses, and has remained so, spreading well beyond Ireland.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eback: portrait of HM Queen Elizabeth II \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLettering: ELIZABETH·II·D·G REG·F·D·\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTranslation: Elizabeth the Second by the Grace of God Queen Defender of the Faith (Elizabeth II Dei Gratia Regina Fidei Defensatrix)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e• quantity 1\u003cbr\u003e• demonetized {no longer in circulation} polished Nickel-brass coin\u003cbr\u003e• diameter: 22.5 mm\u003cbr\u003e• weight: 9.5 g\u003cbr\u003e• edge lettering: Milled and inscribed in Latin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLettering: DECUS ET TUTAMEN\u003cbr\u003eTranslation: An ornament and a safeguard\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCHOOSE FROM DROP DOWN MENU \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• 24” brass ball chain {2.5mm thick, lightweight 5 g}\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• no chain or cord\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• 2-1\/2\" brass snake keychain with snap end {see last photo} \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u0026lt;please like me on\u0026gt;\u003cbr\u003efacebook.com\/coinedJewelry\u003cbr\u003einstagram.com\/coinedJewelry\u003cbr\u003etwitter.com\/coinedJewelry\u003cbr\u003epinterest.com\/coinedJewelry\u003cbr\u003etumblr.com\/blog\/coinedJewelry\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eNorthern Ireland United Kingdom coin pendant jewelry Celtic cross Broighter collar Irish harp British Belfast Derry Saint Patrick's Saltire Great Britain Unionist Derry city Londonderry Armagh town Union Jack\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"coinedJewelry®","offers":[{"title":"2001 \/ 24” brass ball chain","offer_id":39725294387271,"sku":null,"price":152.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2001 \/ no chain or cord","offer_id":39725294452807,"sku":null,"price":152.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2001 \/ 2-1\/2\" brass snake keychain","offer_id":39725294420039,"sku":null,"price":152.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1370\/5901\/files\/il_1140xN.1469599530_j0la_1.jpg?v=1780274018","url":"https:\/\/coinedjewelry.com\/en-hk\/products\/1996-northern-ireland-united-kingdom-1-pound-coin-pendant-irish-celtic-cross-british-harp-belfast-derry-saint-patricks-saltire-n002570","provider":"coinedJewelry®","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
