The Faustina Pendant is a pendant housing an ancient Roman coin. The front is of Faustina the Younger, Roman Empress from 161 and wife of emperor Marcus Aurelius. The pendant is reversible and the back shows Salus, the Roman goddess of safety and well-being. The Faustina Pendant is worn on our Hook Bead Chain at the standard 15" length. When the charm is on the chain the necklace is just under 16" which places it close to the neck. The Hook Bead Chain is also available in 16". If you are adding to your charm collection you can choose to buy the charm alone.
