Greek coin jewelry represents one of the most thrilling periods in history, and you lay claim to some of that glory when once you've acquired it. These coins have not only survived thousands of years, but they have survived with their superb details intact, allowing us to study them and dream. Where did the coin come from? When was it made? How did it get here? An ancient Alexander coin pendant, for example, is a study in art, history, and aesthetics - truly a timeless treasure. Hand-struck, each is an original, possessing its own variation in shape, size, design, and color. Indeed, an ancient Greek coin pendant is a stunning addition to any jewelry collection.
AncientAssets Greek coin pendants are made with coins that are among the rarest ever discovered, with some dating back more than 2,500 years. The term "ancient Greece" denotes a period in history that lasted about 900 years. Coins were introduced into its society around 690 BC, coinciding with the rise of the merchant class. Unlike today, when entire countries use the same money, ancient Greek coins represented individual cities, their patrons, and their economic power in a region of the world that was flourishing. From the Aegina "turtles" to the Athenian "owls," your purchase of these coins today continues that tradition of commerce, exchange, and assessed value.
Our coin jewelry is as beautiful as it is storied. We carefully set our striking Greek coin jewelry in solid gold, some accented with diamonds and precious gemstones. Each is crafted to be an exquisite piece of art, as well as an accessory. Every coin is authenticated by a numismatist and comes with a lifetime guarantee on craftsmanship and authenticity. So when people are drawn to your unique piece and ask the inevitable question, you'll feel confident - and perhaps a little proud - when answering, "Yes, it's really an Ancient Greek coin."
