Denarius of Emperor Marcus Aurelius (176-177 AD)
SIZE: 18 mm. Obverse: Obverse: Laureated head right M ANTONINVS AVG GERM SARM. Reverse: The reverse depicts the arms of defeated enemies.
A Denarius of emperor M. Aurelius from 176-177 AD relating to the victories of the Romans over the Germanic tribes of the Marcomanni the Quadi and the Sarmatian Iazyges. Roman legions were victors of so-called Marcomannic wars. Setting off from the town of Carnuntum on the Danube River the Romans moved along the Moravia and Dyje rivers to South Moravia where the Hradisko - Burgstall Roman military camp near Musov became an important base for their military operations.
The Denarius was a coin weighing less than 4 grams. It had been minted as early as during the Roman Republic and gradually became the main silver coin of the Roman state. The Denarius originally contained a high ratio of silver, but its weight and quality were gradually declining. By the 3rd century A. D., it was essentially a copper coin sometimes silver-plated.
The pendant has been engraved so the Front and Back are Centered up. You may wear the pendant with either side showing.
CHAIN: The chains are all Stainless Steel, 20 inch, 2.5 mm, Rope Chains. The Stainless Steel has the beautuful look of Silver, but will not tarnish. The Gold Chain is real 24K Gold Plate on Stainless Steel.
The Percy Jackson series has inspired millions of young people to enjoy the wonderful and timeless stories of Greek mythology. I have tried to offer the best pendants representing the gods and goddesses in ancient Greece. Athena, Apollo, Zeus and many more. I hope you enjoy them.
