Ancient Roman Coin 2nd Cent. AD Pendant w/rubies depicting Emperor Hadrian
About the Item
This sterling silver pendant holds an authentic Roman coin dating back to the 2nd century AD, depicting Emperor Hadrian, surrounded by 8 Rubies totaling 0.60 KT. The reverse side features the goddess Fides, the divine personification of trust and loyalty in Ancient Roman religion. Fides was a key virtue in Roman society and especially revered within the Imperial Cult as a symbol of the emperor’s fidelity to the Roman people and the gods.
Hadrian is best remembered for his extensive travels, notable construction projects, and his efforts to unify the vast territories of the Roman Empire. He possessed a refined aesthetic sense, was highly educated, and even left a collection of poems behind. Some of the architectural marvels attributed to his reign include the Temple of Rome and Venus, as well as the rebuilding of the Pantheon, which had suffered fire damage during the rule of his predecessor.
One of his most renowned legacies is the Villa Adriana, located just outside of Rome. Covering an area of seven square miles, this opulent estate was more akin to a garden city than a mere villa. It boasted various amenities such as baths, libraries, sculpture gardens, theaters, open-air dining halls, pavilions, and private suites. Some portions of this grand complex have survived to the present day, and it was rightfully designated as a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1999.
Hadrian's tomb, known today as the Castel Sant'Angelo in Rome, served as a burial site for subsequent emperors and was later converted into a fortress during the 5th century.
Our jewelry store, Serra Roma, proudly presents an exquisite collection that beautifully honors the ancient traditions of Greek and Roman civilizations. Each piece in our collection, including authentic ancient Roman and Greek coins and intaglios, is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity, providing proof of its historical significance and origin.

Ancient Roman First Century Emperor Vespasian Eagle Coin 18K Gold Pendant
By Steven Battelle
Located in Soquel, CA
An authentic silver denarius coin with a depiction of the Roman Imperial eagle standing, minted during the realm of the emperor Vespasian in 69-79 AD, is set in a simple matte-finish line textured handmade bezel designed by Steven Battelle. The Roman eagle was a symbol of imperial power, representing courage, strength and immortality. The eagle remains one of the most famous animal symbols associated with ancient Rome today. Most famously, the eagle, or aquila, was featured on the standard of the Roman Legions. The opposite side of this denarius silver coin (which was approximately a daily wage in those times) is a side view of the emperor Vespasian, who ruled for 27 years. His fiscal reforms and consolidation of the empire generated political stability and a vast Roman building...
