Origin: Geresa/ Jordan
Circa: 238 AD to 244 AD
Collection: Coin Jewelry
Style: Roman
Medium: Bronze
This gorgeous coin is set in an 18-karat gold pendant. If we think about objects we carry with us and handle everyday—coins, keys, jewelry—we realize that something of our personal energy passes into these items: we become part of their history even if only for a brief moment. When the empire of Rome was at its height, citizens—men and women, highborn and low—used this sestertius and passed it along. It has survived into our era and grown lovelier with time; when we wear it in its dazzling frame of gold we are connected directly to Antiquity. - (FJ.2395) « Less

Collection: Coin Jewelry
Style: Roman
Medium: Bronze, Gold
The stunning coin is set in an 18-katat gold pendant. When Rome was at her glorious height, her citizens used this heavy coin as we still use money: to purchase goods, both luxurious and ordinary. It passed from hand to hand, touched by people who noted its attractive imperial portrait, and the optimistic message on the reverse. Although money was rare enough in Antiquity, those Romans perhaps thought little of the sestertius as they handled it. Yet the glow of their touch lingers about it still, a direct connection between our age and the splendor of the Classical world. - (FJ.2396) « Less

Medium: Bronze/Diamond/Jade
The emperors and empresses of Rome knew how to make a dramatic entrance, how to focus the attention of an entire crowd. They did this by wearing brilliant costumes, eye-catching jewels, and gleaming gold. This gorgeous creation, featuring the portrait of one of Rome's great rulers, continues that Imperial tradition. Whoever wears it must be prepared to bask in the spotlight. - (FJ.2480) « Less

Additional Information: This magnificent coin is set in an 18-karat gold pendant.
When Rome was at the height of her glory, citizens of her empire used this sesterius to purchase the necessities and the luxuries of life. Who were those people that held this coin between their fingers, and in what way did it enrich their lives? It almost seems as if the glow of their touch still radiates from the surface of the bronze. To wear this token of the Classical age today is to add our own chapter to its long and varied story; it is to become part of the unbroken chain of the human past. - (FJ.2667) « Less

Collection: Coin Jewelry
Style: Roman
Medium: Bronze, Gold
As the emperors of Rome each possessed a distinct personality, so the coins bearing their images also display unique characteristics. Some of these were minted into the coin centuries ago; others are the gift of time and circumstance. No two coins are ever alike. This splendid token of Rome's greatness, bearing the portrait of one of history's most unusual rulers, is meant to adorn someone who enjoys standing apart from the crowd. - (FJ.2670) « Less

Collection: Roman bronze coin pendant
Medium: Bronze/Gold
When we hold such a coin, a token of Rome's Golden Age, our imagination takes flight. The people who first held it centuries ago were witnesses to history, to events, which changed the course of the world forever. Though theirs was a style of life very different from our own, their hopes, dreams and passions were no doubt remarkably similar. The glow of their touch still lingers about this Sestertius. To wear it today is to link us directly with the classical past. - (FJ.2919) « Less

Origin: Jordan (Geresa)
Circa: 222 AD to 235 AD
Collection: Coin
Style: Roman
Medium: Bronze, Gold
A remarkable woman by the standards of any time or place, Julia Mamaea was the true power behind the throne during her son's reign. Later historians looked askance at this breach of convention, but history has shown that the Roman Empire was probably the better for it. The intelligence and ambition of this empress show through in this sensitive small portrait. In a frame of radiant gold, it is fitting adornment for a person who always follows an independent path. - (FJ.2920) « Less

Brilliant and wise, a man of culture and talent, Hadrian ruled Rome during her Golden Age. Perhaps the person who first held this coin so long ago actually saw the emperor ride by in triumph, or visited the magnificent Pantheon he built in Rome, or the library at Athens. The individual who wears this radiant denarius in its golden setting today will touch directly upon the vanished splendor that was Rome. - (FJ.2925) « Less

Hadrian was a great traveler, who visited the far reaches of his empire from Spain, to Greece, to Egypt. After his travels ended, he built a magnificent villa outside Rome whose exotic architecture reminded him of those far-off lands. This lovely coin in its golden frame also evokes distant places: the vanished splendors of the Classical world. To wear it is to embark on a voyage of the imagination. - (FJ.2927) « Less

When we look at such a coin, bearing the sensitive image of an empress who lived centuries ago, we realize that men and women have changed but little with the course of history. The essentials of human behavior--the passions, the emotions, the dreams--are eternal, surviving across time even as great empires come and go. To wear this exquisite imperial coin is to affirm a belief in the power of the human spirit to survive and flourish against all odds. - (FJ.2928) « Less
