Create a truly unique and meaningful accessory for your beloved dog with our Heritage Coin Dog Tag – Custom Engraved from Real British Currency. Each tag is lovingly restored and polished using authentic decommissioned British coins, sanded smooth on one side and engraved with your dog’s name, contact details, and even a stylized head-shot or silhouette. The result is a timeless keepsake that looks like an aged coin — rich with heritage and personality.

Important Copper Oxidation Note
Many of our tags are made from copper-based coins (e.g., pennies, halfpennies, florins with copper content). Copper naturally oxidises over time when exposed to air and moisture, especially on the sanded surface where the original mint finish has been removed. This can lead to:
This change is natural and not a defect — many customers enjoy the evolving patina for its unique, aged character. However, if you prefer your tag to stay bright and untarnished, we recommend you opt for one of the nickel (silver) based coins since they aren’t as effected by this process compared to the copper coins.
ONCE YOU HAVE MADE A PURCHASE, WE'LL SEND YOU INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO GET YOUR PICTURE OVER TO US.
