About the Item

This pendant showcases an authentic 24 Kt Roman solidus from the reign of Emperor Honorius (393–423 AD), set in an elegant 18 Kt gold frame. The front of the coin features a detailed portrait of Honorius, shown wearing a diadem, cloak, and armor, gazing confidently to the right—symbolizing imperial authority and divine favor. On the reverse, the emperor is depicted standing triumphantly with a military standard in one hand and a small figure of Victory in the other, while his foot rests upon a defeated captive—an image that powerfully conveys Rome's military dominance and the emperor’s role as its protector. Honorius ascended to the throne at a young age and ruled during one of the most turbulent periods of the Western Roman Empire. His reign was marked by the sack of Rome in 410 AD by the Visigoths under Alaric, a catastrophic event that symbolized the Empire’s decline. Plagued by court politics, invasions, and the gradual loss of control over the western provinces, Honorius' rule embodies the challenges of a fading empire struggling to maintain unity and power. 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.

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...
