An ornate 18K yellow gold pendant (hallmarked 750 with maker’s mark) set with a genuine Ptolemaic bronze coin dating circa 285–180 BC, likely issued during the reign of Ptolemy II, III, or VI.
The ancient coin is framed within an elaborate twisted-wire bezel and sculpted leaf motif mount, accented with seven round cultured pearls (approx. 4 mm each) set on delicate floral rosettes. A sculptural gold bail completes the design, giving this piece a striking classical aesthetic.
The coin itself depicts a diademed bust of a Hellenistic ruler on the obverse and an eagle standing on a thunderbolt on the reverse—both iconic symbols of Ptolemaic rule.
