Please feel confident purchasing from me and be sure to check out my new feedback connected with my new store! Hand struck gold coin. Size: 13.58 x 9.78 mm. Weight: 4.69 g. Please note that this coin comes with no Authentication papers. I have had several Numismatics I have contacted on the mainland agree that this is the real thing! The price listed takes this into consideration. OBV: Head of lion to right, mouth open, mane bristling, and radiate globule above eye. R: Two square punches of different size side by side. Herodotus is one of the pieces of evidence often cited in behalf of the argument that Lydians invented coinage, at least in the West, even though the first coins were neither gold nor silver but an alloy of the two. The dating of these first stamped coins is one of the most frequently debated topics of ancient numismatics, with dates ranging from 700 BC to 550 BC, but the most common opinion is that they were minted at or near the beginning of the reign of King Alyattes (sometimes referred to incorrectly as Alyattes II), who ruled Lydia c. The first coins were made of electrum, an alloy of gold and silver that occurs naturally but that was further debased by the Lydians with added silver and copper. The largest of these coins are commonly referred to as a 1/3 stater (trite) denomination, weighing around 4.7 grams, though no full staters of this type have ever been found, and the 1/3 stater probably should be referred to more correctly as a stater, after a type of a transversely held scale, the weights used in such a scale (from ancient Greek =to stand), which also means standard. These coins were stamped with a lion’s head adorned with what is likely a sunburst, which was the king’s symbol. To complement the largest denomination, fractions were made, including a hekte (sixth), hemihekte (twelfth), and so forth down to a 96th, with the 1/96 stater weighing only about 0.15 grams. There is disagreement, however, over whether the fractions below the twelfth are actually Lydian. Alyattes’ son was Croesus, who became associated with great wealth. Sardis was renowned as a beautiful city. Around 550 BC, near the beginning of his reign, Croesus paid for the construction of the temple of Artemis at Ephesus, which became one of the Seven Wonders of the ancient world. Croesus was defeated in battle by Cyrus II of Persia in 546 BC, with the Lydian kingdom losing its autonomy and becoming a Persian satrapy.

Item: i70330 Authentic Ancient Coin of. Greek coin of Lydia. Under the Achaemenid Empire. Time of Darius I to Xerxes II 485-420 B. Gold Daric 16mm (8.27 grams) Struck circa 485-420 B. Reference: Carradice Type IIIb, Group B Certification: NGC Ancients. Ch AU Strike: 5/5 Surface: 5/5 4625722-020 Achaemenid king or hero, wearing cidaris and candys, quiver over shoulder, in kneeling-running stance right, transverse spear with globular terminal in right hand, bow forward in left. Irregular rectangular incuse punch with rough interior surface. Successors of Darius I, continued in the traditions established by that monarch, issuing gold darics and silver sigloi for circulation in western Anatolia. The Lydian capital of Sardes, the center of Achaemenid power in the area, was undoubtedly the principal mint, though other cities may have assisted in the production of this enormous coinage. The kneeling archer, with oblong punch on reverse, remained the sole type for this Persian imperial coinage down to Alexander’s conquest in 330 B. The Achaemenid Empire c. 550-330 BC, was an empire based in Western Asia, founded by Cyrus the Great, notable for embracing various civilizations and becoming the largest empire of ancient history, spanning at its maximum extent from the Balkans and Eastern Europe proper in the west, to the Indus Valley in the east. It is equally notable for its successful model of a centralised, bureaucratic administration (through satraps under a king) and a government working to the profit of its subjects, for building infrastructure such as a postal system and road systems and the use of an official language across its territories and a large professional army and civil services (inspiring similar systems in later empires), and for emancipation of slaves including the Jewish exiles in Babylon, and is noted in Western history as the antagonist of the Greek city states during the Greco-Persian Wars. The Mausoleum at Halicarnassus, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, was built in the empire as well.
