A token of a remarkable age and an equally remarkable personality, this ancient coin links us directly with a vanished world. Educated at the imperial court of Rome, Agrippa was the personal friend of Caligula and Claudius. At its peak, his kingdom rivaled that of his grandfather, Herod the great. Agrippa was one of the few herodian kings on good terms with both his subjects and the Romans. This coin, minted without graven images in the Jewish tradition, is adorned with symbols of abundance and kingly power. The people who first held it were witness to history. Whoever wears it today in its frame of gold is certain to make a little history of their own. - (FJ.3677)
