Medieval, Crusaders Era Silver キリキアのアルメニア王国 – レヴォン1世の銀のトラム。身につけられる歴史的な護符として取り付けられている (No reserve price)
A striking fusion of history and craftsmanship, this exceptional pendant centers on an authentic silver tram of King Levon I (Leo the Magnificent, 1198–1219 AD)—one of the most powerful rulers of the Armenian Kingdom of Cilicia during the height of the Crusader period.
The coin itself is a masterpiece of medieval iconography. At its heart, the crowned king appears enthroned in authority, holding symbols of sovereignty, while the reverse traditionally bears the iconic Armenian lion, emblem of courage, dominion, and royal lineage. These coins were not merely currency—they were declarations of power, issued at a time when Armenia stood as a crucial ally and cultural bridge between East and West.
Carefully transformed into a wearable piece, the coin is framed within a refined silver setting, enhancing both protection and presentation. The elegant border and suspension loop elevate it from artifact to museum-style jewelry, allowing the owner to carry a fragment of Crusader-era history.
Levon I: The first crowned king of Cilician Armenia, symbolizing strength, diplomacy, and resilience
Lion motif: Power, guardianship, and royal authority
Crusader connection: A rare tangible link to the medieval Holy Land era
