History

Possibly the most infamous of the Roman Emperors, Nero ruled Rome from 54 A.D. until his death by his own hand in 68 A.D.

From murdering his mother and other political opponents to (according to rumour) starting the great fires of Rome, the stories about his reign paint a picture of a tyrannical and impulsive Emperor that the people of Rome were glad to see gone. Victoria (Victory) on the reverse of this coin is the personification of the goddess of victory. She is the equivalent of Nike, the Greek goddess who is often seen in the hand of Athena on ancient Greek coins.

Care

Each ancient coin and artefact featured in our jewellery has been meticulously restored and professionally stabilised, ensuring it can be cherished for generations. The patina, a natural toning and oxidation on silver, bronze, and copper coins, is not merely dirt; it is a protective layer that has formed over centuries, contributing to the coin's unique history and character. Our conservation efforts focus on preserving these valuable patinas to maintain the authenticity and beauty of each piece. The rich patina, with its spectrum of dark to golden brown hues, is a testament to the coin's journey through time, making each one uniquely beautiful.
