History of the Artifact

The Roman Silver Denarius is among the most Iconic and sought coins in the eyes of ancient coin collectors; these particular Denarii are even more special featuring the legendary Emperor Marcus Aurelius.

Marcus Aurelius was the last emperor of the Pax Romana, an age of relative peace and stability for the Roman Empire lasting from 27 BC to 180 AD. In this period, Marcus Aurelius dedicated his time as Emperor defending the borders of the Roman Empire, carrying the armies of Rome to victory against the warring Parthians and Germanic tribes. Marcus Aurelius was not just a great warrior, but also a keen observer and introspective thinker who’s experiences as Emperor inspired his most notable work ‘Meditations’ - an indispensable contribution to Stoic thought. His works have been widely cited over the centuries by writers, philosophers, monarchs, and politicians alike. He remains today a source of inspiration to millions who draw inspiration from his work to face life’s harrowing challenges.
