Dubini King of Parthia Ancient Silver Coin Medallion 18 Karat Gold Necklace

About the Item

This DUBINI coin necklace from the 'Empires' collection features an authentic Parthian coin from 57-38 B.C. set in 18K yellow gold with bullet amethyst and citrine cabochons. Coin Ø 28-29mm Chain Length: 75cm DEPICTED ON THE COIN: Oredes II, one of the kings of Parthia, on the obverse and the goddess Tyche giving a diadem to the king, on reverse. HISTORY The coin depicts a Parthian king with finely detailed hair and beard, adorned in traditional attire. The king wears a diadem or rounded tiara, often embellished with ornamentation around the crest and a beaded border. Instead of the archer typically featured on the reverse of silver drachms, these larger coins often depict more elaborate scenes. The goddess Tyche, the goddess of good fortune and fate, is seen giving a diadem to the king. This was a symbol of legitimization for Parthian monarchical power. Around the scene are lines of inscription, which rarely fit entirely on the flan. The dynastic name ΑΡΣΑΚΟΥ (Arsaces) is found on almost every coin. Between the heads of Tyche and the king, there is usually a Greek numeral indicating the year of the Seleucid era. Year dating was common on Seleucid coins but rare on Parthian issues from mints other than Seleucia. All Parthian tetradrachms, it is currently believed, were produced at the Seleucia mint, first conquered by the Parthians in 141 B.C. * This piece is provided 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.
