About the Item

An authentic interesting silver "nomos" coin from the ancient Greek colony of Tarentum in Calabria (now in the heel of southern Italy) depicts the mythological founder of the city, Taras, riding a dolphin. Taras was the son of Poseidon. When he was shipwrecked, his father rescued him by sending a dolphin which he rode to the shore. Once on land, Taras founded Tarentum, which was named in his honor. On this coin from 272-235 BC, Taras is shown holding the goddess Nike in his right hand. This high grade coin is set into a Steven Battelle designed double bezeled hammered texture setting. This pendant is sent with a laminated coin certificate of authenticity. The handmade woven chain shown is not included, but can be ordered additionally. It comes in a 20 inch length. We discount the chain 20% when ordered with a pendant.
