One recent buying trip to Israel, we discovered some of the world’s most stunning jewelry – designed around high-quality ancient treasure coins that are rich in history, beauty, and lore. We are proud to offer these impressive and affordable silver masterpieces for the very first time! Each pendant is handcrafted in the Holy Land around collector-grade ancient coins creating a lasting legacy in sterling silver!

This stunning Sterling Silver pendant has been hand set with an authentic Silver Drachma of King Azes II – the ancient Persian ruler said to have sent the Three Kings to seek out the baby Jesus upon his birth! The round, intricately-crafted pendant setting has been hand-fitted so the entire coin is visible. This makes a stunning piece for both men and women. This sterling silver pendant measures approximately 1" in diameter. Don’t forget to add the 24” Diamond Silver Rope Chain to perfectly display your pendant (1803029)
