The pendant measures 2cm x 1.9cm and is made from solid Sterling silver, or gold plated over Sterling silver and hangs from an 18 inch chain. The plating is an extra thick coating of 3 microns of 18 carat gold to ensure durability and long lasting wear.
This necklace was cast from an original bronze Roman coin. One side shows the head of Emperor Constantine most famous for his conversion to Christianity. On the reverse there is Sol Invictus or "unconquered sun", the God and patron of soldiers. The edges and surfaces are beautifully worn by the passage of time.
