Description |
Like a ticket on a time machine, this ancient coin
can take the imagination on a thousand different
journeys. Who might have held it when Rome
ruled the world? Which cities did they visit, and
what wonders did they behold? What did those
citizens of the Classical World think, what made
them laugh or cry? When we hold this splendid
token of antiquity, we touch directly upon those
vanished lives; we feel the faint glow of their
energy still.
