An authentic NYC subway token, set into a sterling silver ring with a hidden Tom Wolfe message inside. A small, secret piece of New York carried at the finger.

Cast in .925 sterling silver around a real, restored "bullseye" token. A functional latch reveals the inscription inside; oxidized subway-track edging surrounds the token.

Meaning
