Athena and Sword | Amisos, Pontos c. 111–90 BC | Bronze Coin in 18k Gold
Struck in Pontos, c. 111–90 BC | Set in Solid 18k Gold
This powerful bronze coin was struck in Amisos, a coastal city in the ancient region of Pontos—long associated with seafaring, sovereignty, and the fierce myths of the Amazons.
The obverse shows the goddess Athena in profile, her helmeted gaze steady and composed. The reverse (image forthcoming) bears a sword in sheath—a rare and arresting image that evokes the paradox of concealed strength and deliberate restraint.
Now framed in solid 18k gold, this piece brings ancient symbolism into modern form. The handmade setting emphasizes the coin’s thick, tactile presence, preserving its centuries-old integrity. As both artifact and adornment, it invites its wearer to embody clarity, wisdom, and controlled power.
