The hoard includes coins exclusively from Alexander Jannaeus, who ruled from 104 to 76 BCE.
The hoard includes coins depicting both William the Conqueror and Harold II, offering insight into the turbulent period following the Norman Conquest of England.
The entire collection of coins is part of a coin "treasure" that was hidden in the late 5th or early 4th century BCE in Asia Minor.
"The pendant demonstrates a desire to plug into this vanished age," noted numismatist Adrian Marsden.
