This splendid coin is set in an 18-karat gold pendant and strung in a necklace with moss agate beads and with an 18-karat gold clasp. The hand of nature and the hand of man joined together to create a necklace of subtle drama. The cool, soothing green of the gemstone beads draws out the highlights of the imperial coin, richly patinated by the passage of centuries. A splendid token of the Classical World at its height, certain to cause quite a stir in the modern age as well.
