ROMAN
REPUBLIC HORSE AND SOLDIER RIDING SILVER DENARIUS COIN RING
IN 14KY GOLD
82 B.C..
From
the glory days of the Roman Republic, this stunning coin was minted under
P. Crepusius in 82 B.C. and features a superb image of a galloping horse
and a Roman soldier. The action of the scene shows the soldier with
his lance raised high in preparation to spear any unfortunate enemy of the
State.
The
coin is an authentic ancient silver denarius and features excellent execution of artistic style. The coins of the early Roman Empire
featured the most beautiful art as they tried to adopt and mimic the
artistry of the earlier Greek coinage and imagery.
Not only is
this coin a true work of ancient art but the modern gold ring is of such a
distinctive and ancient-like style, that the two are perfect companions
creating this superb masterpiece of ancient coin jewelry.
