The second of five snake-themed lots in Rumnicoin’s upcoming auction is this rare 19th-century German silver love token, a beautifully symbolic piece from Berlin (1856–1900).
One side features two parrots—love birds—perched in a tree, while the reverse showcases a continuous snake encircling the German phrase “AUF EWIG”, meaning “Forever”. The snake, an ancient symbol of eternity and devotion, enhances the deep sentiment behind this medallion, making it a remarkable piece for collectors of both historical tokens and romantic keepsakes.

🔹 13g, 36mm
