Dubini Capitoline-Wolf Ancient Bronze Coin Gold Necklace

This DUBINI coin necklace from the 'Empires' collection features an authentic Roman Imperial coin minted circa 330-337 A.D. set in 18K yellow gold with chalcedony and gold beaded tassel. Coin Ø 19mm Chain length: 75 cm DEPICTED ON COIN: She-wolf suckling Romulus and Remus with stars above on the obverse and helmeted bust of Roma on reverse. HISTORY A commemorative coin featuring the iconic she-wolf, affectionately nurturing the infant twins Romulus and Remus.

Considered one of the first ever commemorative coins, this piece by Constantine the Great was likely a strategic celebration of Rome. By honouring the city's legendary founders, Constantine emphasised the Roman Empire's continuity and its profound cultural heritage, despite the political shift to the new capital in Constantinople. The reverse of this coin features the helmeted profile of Roma, the divine patron and personification of the city. Depicted as a warrior, she dons a helmet and armour...
