Byzantine Coin Necklace: Emperor Heraclius & Son

Step into history with this striking replica of a Byzantine Empire coin necklace, minted during the reign of Emperor Heraclius (610–641 AD) and his son Heraclius Constantine. This coin represents a pivotal era in Byzantine history, where the empire stood as the defender of Christianity from threat of the rising Islamic Caliphate.

On the reverse side, a Byzantine cross on three steps with the inscription "VICTORIA AVGG IA" meaning "Victory of the emperors" paying homage to the powerhouse father and son rulers. 

Crafted in 925 sterling silver and 18k yellow gold plated, this replica features the powerful imagery of Heraclius, one of the greatest emperors of Byzantium, and his son, who ruled alongside him.  Heraclius is celebrated for his military victories and his immense contribution to Christianity, particularly his recovery of the True Cross, a relic believed to be the very cross upon which Jesus was crucified. 

The Byzantine Empire, during Heraclius's reign, was not only a political and military power but also the epicenter of Christian faith and theology. It was in this empire that key doctrines of Christianity were debated and solidified, including the nature of Christ as divine and human, which Heraclius sought to unify through his religious policies.

This coin replica necklace serves as a reminder of the Byzantine Empire’s pivotal role in shaping Christianity and Heraclius’s dedication to defending the faith against both external invaders and internal theological conflicts. Own a piece of this rich heritage, commemorating an empire where faith, power, and history converged.

"So Jesus said, 'I speak to you eternal truth. The Son is unable to do anything from himself or through his own initiative. I only do the works that I see the Father doing, for the Son does the same works as his Father. Because the Father loves his Son so much, he always reveals to him everything that he is about to do. And you will all be amazed when he shows him even greater works than what you’ve seen so far! For just as the Father has power to raise the dead, the Son will also raise the dead and give life to whomever he wants.' "

- John 5: 19-21 TPT
