About the Item
This one-of-a-kind pendant features a Koson gold stater, struck circa 44 BC in Thrace and modeled on the design of the legendary Brutus aureus. The obverse depicts a Roman consul between two lictors—one bearing a fasces. The reverse features an eagle standing on a scepter, holding a laurel wreath in its beak.
Koson staters are rare in their own right, but to our knowledge, this is the only known example of this coin type ever set in fine jewelry. It is hand-set in a custom 18k gold bezel, shaped and finished entirely by hand—no glue, no prongs, only traditional craftsmanship.
As part of The Peregrine Collection, this piece includes a matching gold chain and is presented in luxury packaging with full provenance documentation.

The Kidarites, or Kidara Huns, were a dynasty that ruled Bactria and adjoining parts of Central Asia and South Asia in the 4th and 5th centuries. The Kidarites belonged to a complex of peoples known collectively in India as the Huna, and in Europe as the Chionites (from the Iranian names Xwn/Xyon), and may even be considered as identical to the Chionites. The 5th century Byzantine historian Priscus called them Kidarite Huns, or "Huns who are Kidarites". The Huna/Xionite tribes are often linked, albeit controversially, to the Huns who invaded Eastern Europe during a similar period. They are entirely different from the Hephthalites, who replaced them about a century later.

Ancients people would sometimes chisel (test cut) a coin to determine if the coin was a good, official, solid silver or gold coin, or if it was a fourree, a plated counterfeit.
