Ancient Greek 2nd Century BC Ephesus Bee Coin 22K Gold Pendant

About the Item

An authentic ancient Greek silver "drachm" coin depicting a bee from Ephesus 202-150 BC, is held in a granulated high carat setting in this beautiful Steven Battelle designed pendant. Ephesus was a Greek colony established in what is now the western coast of Turkey. It was one of the primary cities of the region throughout ancient times, continuing through the Romans. The ruins there are often visited today. The bee and the deer were sacred to Artemis, the patron goddess of Ephesus. Artemis is the Olympian goddess of the hunt, the moon, and chastity; in time, she also became associated with childbirth and nature. The reverse of this coin depicts a deer next to a palm tree. This piece comes with a laminated coin certificate of authenticity. The chain shown is not included, but can be ordered additionally. We discount chains 20% when ordered with a pendant.
