| Description |
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.
