Dubini Roman Ancient Silver Coin Rose Quartz Medallion 18 Karat Gold Necklace

About the Item

This DUBINI coin necklace from the 'Empires' collection features an authentic Roman denarius silver coin circa 111-110 B.C. set in 18K gold on a rose quartz disc suspended on a rolo chain with a lobster clasp closure and an adjustable fit. Coin Ø 12mm Disc Ø 30mm Chain Length 75cm - also available in shorter 47cm or 60cm on request HISTORY Early denarii typically display a helmeted head of Roma, the personification and divine patron of Rome, depicted as a war-like figure, wearing a helmet and armour, or holding a shield, spear, sword, or sceptre. The denarius, introduced in 211 B.C., was the principal silver coin of Rome for five hundred years. The profile head of the goddess Roma was the most popular image depicted on silver denarii in the second and first centuries BC. She embodied Roman ideals of advancement, expansion, and virtue from c. 270 BC. During Emperor Augustus' reign, he made the worship of Roma official. Roman political, moral, and religious notions were portrayed through Roma in different forms: coins, sculptures, and architectural designs, even in official games and festivals, but seldom in a commonplace or domestic context, as Roma was a construction of Roman state patronage. Though her depictions were influenced by other goddesses at the time, such as Rome’s Minerva, her Greek equivalent Athena, and the various manifestations of Greek Tyches, Roma stands out as a symbol of “natural” dominance, promising protection to those who obeyed or cooperated with her, and embodying “manly virtue” as a fierce mother of a warrior race. The denarius formed the backbone of Roman currency throughout the Roman Republic and the early Empire. *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.
