About the Item

This DUBINI coin necklace from the 'Empires' collection features authentic coins from the Ottoman Empire of Mehmet IV (AH 1058-1099 / AD 1648-1687) AV Sultani, set in 18kt yellow gold with tourmaline and citrine cabochons. DEPICTED ON THE COIN Obverse: Name, titles, mint and date in five lines across field. Reverse: Titles in four lines across field. ø: 23mm Weight: 3.46g HISTORY Ottoman Empire coin of Mehmet IV (A.H. 1058-1099 / A.D. 1648-1687), displaying intricate calligraphy, highlights the prosperity of the empire, which reached the height of its territorial expansion in Europe during his reign. Known as Mehmed the Hunter due to his keen interest in hunting from a young age, he ascended to the throne at six after his father was overthrown in a coup. Mehmed IV became the second-longest reigning sultan in Ottoman history, following Suleiman the Magnificent. He was recognised by his contemporaries as a particularly pious ruler and was honoured with the title "gazi," or “holy warrior,” for his significant role in numerous conquests during his lengthy reign. His rule was marked by a revival of Ottoman fortunes, largely driven by the Grand Vizier Köprülü Mehmed and his son Fazil Ahmed. They reclaimed the Aegean islands from Venice and Crete during the Cretan War (1645-1669) and fought successful campaigns against Transylvania and Poland. Minted in Constantinople at the onset of Mehmed's reign, this coin commemorates the beginning of a prosperous and lucrative era, characterised by global growth and affluence. Note the hole marked on the coin’s edge, hinting at a fascinating chapter in its history. This unique feature suggests that the coin was once repurposed as a piece of jewellery or decorative ornament. Far from diminishing its value, this alteration highlights the enduring tradition of transforming coins into personal adornments. It’s a striking reminder of how the allure of coinage has transcended time, evolving from mere currency into cherished personal treasures. * This piece is provide with a Certificate of Authenticity. ……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………. The Empires Collection playfully delights in ancient stories and myths whilst tapping into the rich history of Italian craftsmanship. The coins have been carefully selected for their value, beauty and as witnesses of a bygone era. Within a clean and classic context, Empires merges past and present, creating timeless pieces with an irresistible edge.

Dubini Ancient Capitoline-Wolf Bronze Coin Green Agate Tassel 18K Gold Necklace
By DUBINI
Located in London, GB
This DUBINI coin necklace from the 'Empires' collection features an authentic Roman Imperial coin minted circa 330-337 A.D. set in 18K yellow gold with green agate and gold beaded tassel. Coin Ø 19mm Chain length: 75 cm DEPICTED ON THE COIN She-wolf suckling Romulus and Remus with stars above on the obverse and helmeted bust of Roma on reverse. HISTORY A commemorative coin featuring the iconic she-wolf, affectionately nurturing the infant twins Romulus and Remus. This striking depiction honours the legendary foundation of Rome, a timeless tale intertwined with the identity of Constantine the Great as he sought to solidify his stature as the supreme ruler of the Empire. According to the revered myth, Romulus and Remus, children of the god Mars and the vestal Rhea Silvia, a descendant of Aeneas, were abandoned in the wild and suckled by a she-wolf. As they grew, the twins founded Rome, but a dispute over which hill to build upon led to Remus's tragic death. The enduring "wolf and twins" motif has graced countless Roman coins since the Republic era, symbolising Rome's origins and resilience. Considered one of the first ever commemorative coins, this piece by Constantine the Great was likely a strategic celebration of Rome. By honouring the city's legendary founders, Constantine emphasised the Roman Empire's continuity and its profound cultural heritage, despite the political shift to the new capital in Constantinople. The reverse of this coin features the helmeted profile of Roma, the divine patron and personification of the city. Depicted as a warrior, she dons a helmet and armour...
