| Description |
Like people, no two ancient coins are exactly
alike. Struck by hand, touched by the passage of
time, surviving by chance, every ancient coin has
a unique character that sets it apart from all
others. This silver token portrays Elagabalus, one
of the most unusual and surprising of all roman
rulers. An individual of unique gifts and talents,
he scandalized the roman world with his
excesses. To wear this coin in its radiant golden
setting is to connect ourselves in an intimate way
with that vanished world, and with the lives of
the men and women who gave it meaning.
