These small brooches were made from 100 Franc denomination coins that were minted in the Muslim year 11372.  It's currently 1445.  

Though these pins are very small, I believe they may be able to be worn with very delicate and diaphanous knits.  They might be best suited as a closure for knitted or crocheted lace jewelry or a delicate collar.
