# Owl of Athena Minerva Greek Coin Style Cufflinks, Assorted Colors

## A Hand-Struck Owl for the Cuff: Athena Owl Cufflinks

A finely detailed owl fills a round disc with a slightly uneven edge, as if struck by hand. These Athena owl cufflinks are about 1 in across in gold plate or silver plate.

The owl coin cufflinks borrow the look of an ancient Greek coin.

## Why the Edges Are Uneven

Ancient coins were struck by hand between two dies. No two had quite the same shape. The uneven edge on these cufflinks follows that habit.

An Athenian silver tetradrachm from about 514 to 509 BC shows Athena on one side. An owl fills the other.

## Sacred Bird of Athena

The owl was a sacred symbol in ancient Greece. It stood for wisdom, which belonged to Athena and to her Roman form, Minerva.

Wisdom owl cufflinks therefore pair a coin shape with a goddess's bird.

## Wearing and Display

Wear the Athena owl cufflinks with French cuffs in white or blue. Choose gold or silver to match a watch. Wipe with a soft cloth.

Owl coin cufflinks suit lecture halls and board rooms alike. Minerva owl cufflinks stay bright in a lined box. See more in our [Museum Jewelry Cufflinks and Tie Tacks](https://www.museumize.com/collections/museum-jewelry-cufflinks-tietacks).

## About Athenian Coins

Athens spread its owl coins across the Mediterranean. Merchants trusted them. The Athena owl cufflinks recall that trust and the city's reputation for learning.
