About the Item

To appreciate the pendant's size (13 mm), the relief of the coin and the shape of the bail, see the picture showing the coin next to a US quarter (will post soon). The coin was first set in a sterling silver bezel, which was then hammered over the edge of both sides. This was then sanded and polished. This pendant is built to last. -- Coin information: Cappadocia, Caesarea, Hadrian - silver hemidrahm Obverse: AVTO KAIC TPAI AΔPIANOC CЄBACT, laureate head right Reverse: ЄT Δ club facing downward Struck - RY 4 (120/1 AD) See all Peregrine Pendants jewelry: https://www. etsy. com/shop/PeregrineAncients Follow on instagram @peregrinependants - Comes with certificate which guarantees authenticity and provides background information (listed below) on the acquired coin - Jewelry pouch included; Pictured 14k gold chain can be purchased separately - Interested in ancient coins? I wrote a little bit about what I find fascinating about them here: https://tinyurl .com/24pkndjw Ancients people would sometimes chisel (test cut) a coin to determine if the coin was a good, official, solid silver or gold coin, or if it was a fourree, a plated counterfeit. Owls on Ancient Coins Owls are depicted on many different ancient coin types but the most prolific types are the coins of ancient Athens. The ancient slang names for the coins of Athens were "owls" (but in Greek of course) and "girls" (referring to Athena on the obverse, also in Greek). "Owls" were so popular as a central currency of the ancient world that the design remained essentially unchanged and somewhat archaic long after other cities began to produce coins of a more refined artistic style. "Owls" of Athens are still very popular. For collectors, they are perhaps the most popular ancient coin type.
