*Note* These two lockets are slightly discounted because the left “twin”’s face is faded. This is probably just due to wear that these coins incurred during their wild life being used at busy peep shows in the 70s and 80s. I currently have two Gemini lockets available, they ship in 1-5 business days from purchase.
Peep shows were popular establishments from the 1960s-1980s, where one could purchase brass tokens and then enter a room with a curtained window. You would then place a token into a slot and the curtain would open, revealing an erotic film or a live performance.
Some of these hard-to-find vintage brass tokens feature a zodiac sign on one side with a corresponding personality trait and sex position on the back. I love making these into lockets with the innocent zodiac sides facing out and the naughty images inside. They are in effect tiny wearable peep shows, known only to you and those with whom you share its cheeky secret!
Each token is slightly larger than a US quarter. Locket comes on an oxidized brass chain.
There were different pressings of these tokens with minute differences in design. In addition, each locket is made by hand. Please allow for subtle differences and “imperfections” in each piece.
