Each one of these coins was minted between 336-323 B.C. and is thus an ancient 2300 years old. Minted during the reign of Alexander the Great in the Macedonian Kingdom (neighbor of Greece), these coins are a lifetime issue.
Made from silver, the coins are very well preserved and show amazing detail. The obverse depicts the Greek hero Herakles (Hercules) son of Zeus and half-brother of Perseus, wearing the skin of the Nemean lion. The other side shows Zeus, holding an eagle and scepter, as well as two monograms.

All coins are real ancient artifacts and will come with a Certificate of Authenticity.

The coin of your choice will be mounted in a four prong sterling silver setting (see photos for examples).
If you don't have a preferred orientation (which side up) we would choose what works best for the coin and the pendant.
