About the Item

To appreciate the pendant's size, 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. Comes with certificate which guarantees authenticity and provides background information (listed below) on the acquired coin -- Coin information: Vespasian, silver denarius Obverse: IMP CAESAR VESPASIANVS AVG; laureate head of Vespasian to right Reverse: PON MAX TR P COS VI; Pax seated left holding branch Struck at Rome about AD 75  The denarius was the standard Roman silver coin from its introduction in the Second Punic War about  211 BC to the reign of Gordian III ( 238–244 CE), when it was gradually replaced by the antoninianus. It continued to be minted in very small quantities, likely for ceremonial purposes, until and through the Tetrarchy (293–313). The word denarius is derived from the Latin dēnī "containing ten", as its value was originally of 10 assēs. The word for "money" descends from it in Italian (denaro), Slovene (denar), Portuguese (dinheiro), and Spanish (dinero). Its name also survives in the dinar currency.

Indian, Post-Kushan (Jammu and Kashmir) - Kidarite Successors, Vinayaditya Obverse: abstract Kushan style king standing left; ka in Brahmi to left; to right, jaya and monogram of Kidara in Brahmi Reverse: Abstract Ardoxsho seated facing, holding filleted investiture garland and cornucopia; ditya in Brahmi to left, śri vinaya in Brahmi down right Struck 5th-7th century The Kidarites, or Kidara Huns, were a dynasty that ruled Bactria and adjoining parts of Central Asia and South Asia in the 4th and 5th centuries. The Kidarites belonged to a complex of peoples known collectively in India as the Huna, and in Europe as the Chionites (from the Iranian names Xwn/Xyon), and may even be considered as identical to the Chionites. The 5th century Byzantine historian Priscus called them Kidarite Huns, or "Huns who are Kidarites". The Huna/Xionite tribes are often linked, albeit controversially, to the Huns who invaded Eastern Europe during a similar period. They are entirely different from the Hephthalites, who replaced them about a century later. Ardoksho (Bactrian script Αρδοχϸο), also Romanised as Ardochsho, Ardokhsho and Ardoxsho, the Iranic goddess of wealth was a female deity of the Kushan Empire...

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. The Roman eagle was a symbol of imperial power, representing courage, strength and immortality. The eagle remains one of the most famous animal symbols associated with ancient Rome today. 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...
