This signet ring features a copper follis coin, issued during the reign of Roman Emperor Constantius II (r. 337-361 AD), quietly set in SV925 silver.
The obverse depicts the emperor's profile, while the reverse shows two soldiers facing each other with two military standards between them. The inscription "GLORIA EXERCITVS" around the edge means "The Glory of the Army." This design was widely used during a turbulent era when defending the vast empire's borders was critically important, serving to proudly display and celebrate the army's unity and strength.
A living testament that passed from soldier to soldier, supporting the empire's peace. The rugged MONOLITH in SV925 firmly embraces this rigid design, evoking discipline and power, and elevates it into a modern form.
The spirit of Rome, passed down through time, quietly intertwines with contemporary aesthetics. This piece embodies the philosophy of Hephol.
