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 Denarius, was minted by moneyer M. Caecilius Metellus in 127 BC in Rome. It pictures the helmeted Roma on the front (obverse) with the bold "ROMA" legend. Roma was the personification – the representation - of the city of Rome, where this coin was minted.  On the back (reverse) is the Macedonian shield decorated with the head of an elephant.

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.
