Collection: Roman
Medium: Silver-Chalcedony
When the Roman Empire was at its height, this silver coin was passed hand to hand in the towns and markets, purchasing the luxuries and necessities of life. As we hold it today, we are aware of the vanished touch of others long ago, of men and women with hopes, dreams and passions not unlike our own. In a setting of subtle beauty, this ancient token reminds us that the essentials of life have remained the same across the centuries. - (FJ.4149)
