Made to Order: Philip II Ancient Coin Beautiful Green Patina
Aside from the stunning color of this coin, it has a nice weight to it and is quite thick. The last two photos show a similar coin set in 18k gold. This listing is made to order, meaning I will make the pendant and ship within three weeks. The first two pictures are of the coin. The third image is an example of as similar coin set in a sterling silver bezel setting. Please let me know if you prefer a bezel or prong setting. Note I currently have a similar coin for sale (already set in silver).
To appreciate the pendant's size, the relief of the coin and the shape of the bail, see the picture showing the coin next to a US quarter (will post soon). The coin was first set in a gold bezel, which was then hammered over the edge of both sides. This was then sanded and polished. This pendant is built to last.
Comes with certificate which guarantees authenticity and provides background information (listed below) on the acquired coin
-- Coin information:
Kings of Macedon - Philip II Bronze
Obverse: head of Apollo left, with hair bound in tainia
Reverse: ΦIΛIΠΠOY, youth on horseback prancing left, Π below horse
Struck 359-336 BC
Philip II of Macedon was the king (basileus) of the ancient kingdom of Macedonia from 359 BC until his death in 336 BC. He was a member of the Argead dynasty, founders of the ancient kingdom, and the father of Alexander the Great. The rise of Macedon, including its conquest and political consolidation of most of Classical Greece during his reign, was achieved by his reformation of the army (the establishment of the Macedonian phalanx that proved critical in securing victories on the battlefield), his extensive use of siege engines, and his use of effective diplomacy and marriage alliances.
