ROMAN REPUBLIC HELMETED ROMA SILVER DENARIUS COIN PENDANT

IN 14K YELLOW GOLD

1ST CENTURY B.C.

With its beautiful and elegant depiction of a helmeted Roma, this coin from the Roman Republic represents the "golden years" of Roman art style and splendor.  The gold pendant setting is a fine filigree and rope design that creates a sense of wonderful intricacy without dominating or taking away from the simple and classic art of the coin's goddess.  The rich luster of the silver denarius coin contrasts well with the warm 14KY gold setting and makes for a beautiful as well as highly unique piece of jewelry.

In ancient times, each city was watched over by a god or goddess.  Roma was the patron goddess of Rome itself and can be compared to the prominence of the Statue of Liberty in America.  She was usually shown in helmet and armor as protector, ready to rise up and defeat any challenger of Rome.  

This coin is classic ancient Rome and is a superb example of ancient Roman art.  Exceptional presence with simple yet stately aesthetics!

Overall diameter is a nice sizable 24 mm.
