Ancient Roman Republic 1st Century BC Griffin Coin Diamond 18K Gold Pendant
About the Item
An interesting, authentic, silver denarius coin from the period of the Roman Republic in 79 BCE, featuring a griffin leaping, is set in a Steven Battelle ancient inspired handmade matte-finish textured bezel mount with 1.8mm VS1 diamond accent. The denarius was approximately the daily wage of a soldier in ancient Rome. This particular type of coin is known as a denarius serratus. The ragged edges of the coin are intentional (all coins of this type have them) to show that coin is pure silver. The minting of the coins was an annual office shared by 3 men, and they often placed the family name on the coins. This coin was minted by moneyer L. Papius, who was probably from Lanuvium, which was about 19 miles outside of Rome. The reverse side of the coin displays the patron deity of Lanuvium, Juno Sospita, shown wearing a goat skin headdress, which was a form of protection for the Romans. The griffin is a legendary creature with the body of a lion and head and wings of an eagle. In antiquity it was a symbol of divine power and a guardian of the divine. This pendant is sent with a laminated coin certificate of authenticity. The 18K handmade hammered chain shown is not included, but can be ordered additionally. It comes in 18, 20 and 24 inch lengths. We discount our chains 20% when ordered with a pendant.
