ROMAN IMPERIAL SILVER COIN FEATURING 'LIBERTAS' THE ROMAN GODDESS OF LIBERTY AND FREEDOM COIN PENDANT IN 14KY GOLD 238 A.D. This beautiful and well detailed GENUINE ancient Roman silver antoninianus coin depicting the goddess LIBERTAS is an attractive and unique piece of wearable ancient history. It was minted under the rule of the emperor Gordian I in 238 A.D. and features his profile on the back side of the pendant which is visible but not meant to be worn outward. The more interesting depiction of LIBERTAS makes for a fantastic centerpiece to this fine jewelry pendant. You see her resting relaxed but confidently against a pillar in long flowing robes as she holds a spear to protect her freedom. The lustrous brightness of the genuine ancient pure silver coin wonderfully contrasts with the simple 14K polished yellow gold pendant setting. For both its beauty and meaning, this is an incredible wearable artifact and a perfect piece for anyone who finds special symbolism in all Libertas stands for. LIBERTAS was the Roman deity for the embodiment of FREEDOM and it is the Latin word from which we derive the work LIBERTY from, today. This Roman goddess was the inspiration for the Statue of Liberty in America and since the days of ancient Rome, was featured on currency even unto today in several countries. Overall diameter is 21 mm, about the size between a U.S. nickel and penny. CPR155 SOLD COMES WITH A CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY / HISTORY SHEET *** shown with optional CHAIN E, not included |
