Origin: Jordan (Geresa)
Circa: 244 AD to 249 AD
Collection: Roman
Medium: Bronze-Gold-Jasper
Additional Information: This superb coin is set in an 18 karat gold pendant and strung in a necklace with genuine rock crystal beads, genuine red jasper beads, genuine black onyx beads, and a 14 karat gold clasp.
During Philip’s reign, Rome celebrated the one thousandth anniversary of its founding. That much time and more than half again has passed since this coin was struck. It is all relative, of course. Among the things that endure across the ages are a love of adornment, and an appreciation of luxurious good taste—for which this necklace fulfills a definite need. - (FJ.1740)
