This is a set of Lincoln pennies converted into cuff links for birthdays (e.g., 21st / 25th / 30th / 40th / 50th / 65th birthday). All characters are hand-stamped by me -- one character at a time.

➽➽➽ Production time on this item is 3-5 business days (PRIOR to shipping), which does not include weekends or holidays. This means your item will ship no later than 1 week after the date you place your order, unless there is a federal holiday(s) involved.
➽➽➽ This item will be shipped via USPS First Class Mail Parcel (3-7 days typical delivery AFTER production) in a bubble envelope OR via USPS Priority Mail Small Flat Rate box (2-3 days typical delivery AFTER production). Both shipping options come with USPS Tracking™. Please remember that Priority Mail shipping just means that the item will be delivered faster, NOT that it will be created faster; faster shipping does not equal faster production.
➽➽➽ Pictures are enlarged (close-ups) to show detail. The photos are not the actual size of the finished item. Please refer to the applicable scale information shown in the photos (i.e., the U.S. penny, the U.S. dime, the U.S. nickel, the ruler, etc.) and/or the listing description for actual dimensions. Remember, U.S. pennies are only 19mm across (roughly 3/4-inch or 0.75 inches), U.S. dimes are only 17.7mm across (less than 3/4-inch; roughly 0.70 inches), and U.S. nickels are only 21.2mm across (roughly 0.84 inches).
➽➽➽ NOTE: I do *not* stamp on the front & back of any single penny. Stamping on one side causes a slight "smudge" in the metal on the opposite side (because the metal is soft). If you stamp on both sides of the penny, one side of the stamped characters ends up slightly distorted. The only way to avoid this is to stamp the characters *very* lightly, which means they don't show up very well, even when darkened in. Thanks for understanding.
➽➽➽ All pieces are handcrafted by me. Spacing between, and depth of, hand-stamped letters, numbers, characters/images, etc., will vary slightly between, and within, items. These small variations add to the charm and unique nature of each piece. They are not imperfections.
➽➽➽ If you need a larger quantity of cuff links than what is listed as available, please convo me.

☛ All stamped characters will be darkened in so that they stand out.
☛ The visible side of each penny will be polished to as bright shine as possible, but will show signs of wear and scratches due to circulation.
☛ If you would rather NOT have the pennies polished, please let me know. I can leave them in their original color/condition, which will vary greatly depending on its circulation. However, if the pennies are not polished, the stamped letters/numbers/characters will ***NOT*** be darkened in due to the coloring process. If a polishing preference is not specified, the default will be to provide polished pennies.
☛ The back of each penny features a silver-plated, standard cuff link which is adhered with industrial strength jewelry adhesive.

✔ Please review AmySueCrafts's "Shipping & Policies" available at the tab above or go to: https://www.etsy.com/shop/AmySueCrafts/policy
✔ This item has small parts and should not be given to children due to choking hazards.
✔ Items created by AmySueCrafts are NOT toys. Please do not allow children, pets, or other adults to play with these items. Many items are breakable and also pose a choking hazard. Never put pennies, coins, charms, or other items in your mouth (or allow others to do so).
✔ Except in the case certain of ready-to-ship items, the items pictured are EXAMPLES ONLY; yours will vary based on your customization choices and natural variations in the hand-stamping process.
✔ Care Instructions for Your Handmade Item:
- Avoid direct contact with lotion, oil, perfume/cologne, hairspray, sunscreen, bug spray, and other chemicals (e.g., harsh detergents, household cleaners, bleach, alcohol, acids, etc.)
- Avoid contact with water – do not shower with OR swim with your keychains, pendants, jewelry, or other items created by AmySueCrafts; chlorine and other chemicals in water can damage, discolor, and/or destroy your handcrafted items
- In addition, keep resin-based items (e.g., music cufflinks, resin flower pendants, etc.) away from extended exposure to direct sunlight and high temperatures
- For vintage silverware, please refer to the care instructions included with your order
✔ Each hand-stamped item is stamped by me, by hand, using a hammer -- one letter/number/character/symbol at a time -- so the letters/characters/numbers may not be perfectly lined up, which only adds to the charming, rustic appeal of an item. No two will ever look the same!
✔ PLEASE be certain to provide me with ALL requested customization details at Checkout. Failure to do so can result in shipping delays which are beyond my control per my policies. If I need to follow up via convos and/or emails to gather missing custom details, your response time will determine when your item is able to be created. Thanks for understanding.
✔ If you need RUSH Order Processing (for an extra fee) to create your item faster than the standard production time listed above, please convo me prior to ordering.
✔ I ship ALL items with USPS Tracking™ (formerly called "Delivery Confirmation") which means I ***CANNOT*** ship anything by regular USPS First Class Mail; it must be sent as a USPS First Class Parcel to qualify for USPS Tracking™. This is slightly more expensive for very small, flat items, but the tracking information provides you with proof that I shipped the package and proof of delivery.
✔ AmySueCrafts accepts payment via ALL major credit cards as well as PayPal. Please convo me if you need further assistance. Please also note that payment by eCheck (checking account) or debit card may delay your order; those forms of payment often take 3-5 business days to clear the bank.
✔ ALL penny keychains come with your choice of (steel-based) keychain color: Antique Copper, Silver, or Gold.
✔ ALL keychains are also packaged in organza gift bags/pouches (effective 2/3/16). Solid white is the standard color, but some listings offer additional color choices.

Once a package is picked up by USPS and leaves my hands, AmySueCrafts is not responsible for delivery delays, lost packages, undelivered packages, or damaged packages. Lost, damaged, undelivered, or returned packages paid without insurance are the responsibility of the buyer, not AmySueCrafts. If you choose not purchase insurance and your package is lost, damaged, or not delivered by USPS, AmySueCrafts is not liable and cannot provide a refund.
