| Description |
This ancient coin commemorates some of the most fascinating personalities of all time. Minted in the 14th year of the reign of Claudius (AD 54), it bears the name of the emperor on one side surmounted by two victorious palm branches, while on the other is the name of his fourth wife, the clever and beautiful Agrippina, whose son Nero would succeed his stepfather later that year. The person who first held this coin was witness to history; whoever wears it today will make a little history as well.
