Please Note: This is an authentic Ancient Roman Treasure Coin, and you will receive the exact pendant in the photographs and description.
Before the Roman Empire, there was the Roman Republic… where ancient Rome was ruled by the powerful Senate and moneyers were responsible for creating the coins used by the citizens of this rising power.
This silver coin, a Denaruis, was minted in Rome between 111 - 110 BC by moneyers Appius Claudius Pulcher, T. Manlius Mancius, and Q. Urbinius. It pictures the helmeted Roma on the front (obverse). Roma was the personification – the representation - of the city of Rome. On the back (reverse) is Victory, the goddess of victory in battle and over death, driving a triga (a three-horse chariot - more below in April's Notes).
Our ancient coin pendants are a favorite of history fans, students, travel buffs and teachers… and anyone with a love of the past. Our Roman jewelry is designed to be worn by men or women will accommodate both large and small chain and leather necklaces.
April's Notes: Notably, this is quite a rare issue as it pictures a triga on the reverse. The triga was a Greek chariot with three horses. Most Roman coins with chariots feature the two-horse biga or the four-horse quadriga. A wonderful example of the details found on Roman coins.
(Please note: this information and much more will appear on your customized Certificate of Authenticity.)
Each ancient Roman coin was hand-struck by three people, and at the height of the Roman empire, coins were minted throughout the sprawling territories – even in military camps where coins were minted to pay soldiers. Lost or purposely hoarded, this ancient Roman Coin was discovered by metal detector and professionally conserved for a lifetime of enjoyment.
