ROMAN FEMALE EMPRESS COIN PENDANT

IN 14KY GOLD WITH STERLING SILVER DECORATION

5TH CENTURY A.D.

This has got to be one of my most interesting coins because it features one of the few WOMEN who served as emperors of the Roman empire.  This incredibly detailed choice example is even in better shape than the photo shows.  Set in a handmade 14KY gold and sterling setting, the coin dates back to 400 AD.  The woman empress featured is Eudoxia and was the wife of Arcadius.  She attained title of emperor in 400 AD but died in 404 AD.  Shown above her head is a wreath that is held by hand, representing the hand of God.  The hand is on the edge underneath the bezel.  The few female emperors during the late 5th century AD had this hand and wreath above their profile.  A one-of-a-kind gift for a woman politician or any fancier of rare ancient history.  Overall diameter is 20 mm.  

A very rare and CHOICE coin!!!
