AEQUITAS stands, holding scales in one hand and a cornucopia in the other — symbols of fairness and abundance. The scales represent balance and justice, while the cornucopia signifies prosperity. Struck under Antoninus Pius (AD 138–161), this silver denarius pairs the concept of Aequitas — the personification of justice and fairness — with the stability of the Roman Empire during one of its most peaceful reigns. Aequitas wasn’t a goddess in the traditional sense, but a representation of the emperor’s commitment to balance and equity in governance. For the wearer, this coin serves as a reminder of the power of fairness, integrity, and the abundance that can flow from doing what’s right.
