BYZANTINE
ANONYMOUS FOLLES COIN PENDANT IN
14KY GOLD 969
- 1052 A.D. What
an incredibly unique alternative to a cross pendant! This genuine
bronze anonymous bronze Folles was called such because the ruling emperor
was not depicted on the obverse but instead, Christ. This particular
issue is rarely encountered. Furthermore, it is an exquisite example
with not only excellent detail, but superb patina to highlight the
design. The reverse (not shown) shows Christ holding the
Gospels. An impressive and stately antiquity of ancient Christianity
and highly recommended. CP117
SOLD *if
