About the Item

Discover a remarkable 18kt gold pendant featuring an original Roman silver coin dating back to 150 BC. This exquisite piece showcases a captivating depiction of the revered Goddess Rome. On the reverse side of the coin, you'll find the image of Victory riding a chariot.

In ancient Roman religion, Goddess Rome held immense significance as a stunning female deity, representing the essence of Rome and the Roman state. Through various art forms like coins, sculptures, and architectural drawings, the ideals of Roman politics and religion were conveyed, centered around the representation of Goddess Rome. While influenced by other contemporary goddesses, particularly Athena, Rome stood as an iconic symbol of Rome in her own right.

Goddess Rome embodied the ideal followed by rational women in ancient Rome, balancing beauty and intellect. She symbolized composure in challenging situations, employing strategic thinking to act decisively, a trait traditionally associated with men. This archetype encouraged women to take control, assess consequences, and adapt their actions for more favorable outcomes.

In Roman art and on coins, Goddess Rome was often depicted wearing military regalia and a helmet, emphasizing her association with warfare and defense.

It is worth noting that the worship of Goddess Rome had an exclusively male priesthood, signifying the societal norms and traditions prevalent during ancient Roman times.

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.
