Macedonian Kingdom, Alexander the Great, 323 - 317 B.C.

This coin was an early posthumous issue, struck during the nominal rule the puppet kings Philip III (Alexander the Great's brother) & Alexander IV (Alexander the Great's son), under one of the Macedonian satraps in Babylon: Archon, Dokimos, or Seleukos I. The regent Perdiccas suspected Archon of colluding in the theft of Alexander's co**se and, in 321 B.C., sent Dokimos to replace him. Archon was defeated and died from battle wounds. Seleucus, made satrap by Perdiccas' rival Antipater, arrived in Babylon in October or November 320 B.C. and defeated Dokimos.

Extremely Rare Coin Issued By One Of Alexander The Great’s Best Friends
Worth $164,683; one of only 4 known examples.

This gold stater was struck in Alexandria under Ptolemy I Soter while he was still satrap of Egypt, sometime between 313 and 311 BC. On the obverse, the coin shows the diademed head of Alexander III (The Great) wearing an elephant’s scalp headdress, an aegis and the horn of Ammon over his ear. The reverse shows the prow of galley adorned with one large and one small protective eye.

Ptolemy I Soter (c. 367-283 BC) was a Macedonian general under Alexander the Great, who became ruler of Egypt (323–283 BC) and founder of the Ptolemaic Kingdom and dynasty. In 305/4 BC he demanded the title of pharaoh. Before Alexander’s death in 323 BC, Ptolemy was one of Alexander’s most trusted generals, and was among the seven somatophylakes (bodyguards) attached to his person. He was a few years older than Alexander, and had been his intimate friend since childhood.

This is one of the greatest rarities of Ptolemaic coinage, and it celebrates the Ptolemy I’s use of Alexander’s figure as a badge of legitimacy. As is well known, Ptolemy arranged to capture Alexander’s body in 322 BC, when it was in Syria on the way to Macedonia. It was soon placed in a great tomb in Alexandria where it remained until at least the 3rd century AD (though there are reports of it having been seen in the 9th and 10th centuries). This coin bears the typically Ptolemaic portrait of Alexander (with the elephant’s skin headdress) and a prow, which probably commemorates some initial Ptolemaic victories in Cyprus. The portrait itself is remarkably evocative with the visage of a human who was also considered divine.

Gold coin of Croesus, Lydia, c. 550 BC, portrays the confronted foreparts of a lion on the right and a bull on the left.

This series can justifiably be termed the "world's first major gold coinage." While the Lydian kingdom and several Greek city states of Asia Minor had previously struck coins in electrum, a natural alloy of gold and silver, the accession of Croesus to the Lydian throne circa 561 BC ushered in a revolution in the world economy. The most important reform attributed to Croesus was the introduction of a bimetallic coinage in gold and silver, first augmenting and then replacing the previous electrum issues. The lion had previously been used by Alyattes, and one theory is that this is a dynastic type, with the lion representing Alyattes, and the bull representing his son and successor.

This coin is in British Museum's collection.

The 'Trier Gold Hoard' was the largest Roman gold hoard ever discovered. Comprising of 2,500 gold coins weighing 18.5 kg , the discovery was made during excavation works in 1993, nearly 1,800 years after it was hidden.

It has been determined that 651 silver coins found in the excavations carried out in the tea in the ancient city of Çavdarhisar district of Kütahya are in the nature of a private collection belonging to the Roman Republic period. Included in the UNESCO World Heritage Tentative List in 2012, Aizanoi is home to the best preserved Temple of Zeus in Anatolia, and excavation and field studies are carried out under the coordination of Pamukkale University Archeology Department.

Florida Treasure Hunter Finds $1 Million In Gold Coins
Eric Schmitt, captain of the 44-foot treasure-hunting boat Aarrr B***y, went into the water not expecting to find much. He had no idea what was waiting for him at just 15 feet.

“We were only three days into our hunting season,” says Schmitt. “We’ve found washers and dryers and even cars by this site — to find the treasure only 15 feet underwater was really unbelievable.”

In the 1960s Schmitt’s father started diving the wrecks off Fort Pierce, Florida, recovering thousands of silver coins. Following in his father’s footsteps, Eric began hunting the same wrecks a few years ago, using mapping software to determine where to find the b***y. Schmitt’s family, having searched through the shipwrecks of the 1715 Spanish fleet since 2011, cheered him on as he brought the first of the 52 small gold coins to the surface. And although all the coins are valuable, there was one in the pile worth more than all of them combined — the Tricentennial Royal.

“This coin is one of the rarest in the world, with only one or two ever found,” says Schmitt. “It wasn’t used for currency. It was a presentation piece that would have been personally delivered to King Phillip V.”

The coin is worth $500,000 and was in U.S. Federal Court custody until the end of 2015; it’s expected the Schmitts will sell it to a private collector for up to $1 million.

“While some people might say we’re lucky, it was really a lot of hard work,” says Schmitt. “This business has peaks and valleys, but treasure hunting is our dream — and there’s still $400 million worth of stuff down there waiting to be found.”

The world's first true gold coin. Having pioneered the refining process for separating electrum into pure silver and gold, the Lydians under King Croesus introduced a revolutionary bimetallic coinage system around 550 BC. The gold Croesus stater, equal to ten of the corresponding silver staters, depicted a roaring lion facing off against a bull – perhaps representing the royal lion of Lydia leaping to attack its neighbouring Greek city states, symbolised by the bull of Hellenic Zeus.

Rare Coin Showing The Myth of Erichthonios, C. 450-330 BC
This electrum stater is from the ancient city of Kyzikos (Cyzicus, map) in Mysia. It shows the Earth (Gaia) rising out of the ground, bearing in both hands the infant Erichthonios with a tunny fish below. The reverse is a quadripartite incuse square. Very fine, toned, slightly off center.

The myth of Erichthonios places him at the beginning of the line of Athenian kings. Born of Gaia through Hephaestus, the infant was entrusted to Athena, who gave him to the daughters of Kekrops of Athens in a sealed casket. When they opened the casket, the sight of the anguipedic* (serpent-footed) Erichthonios drove the women to madness, and they hurled themselves off the Acropolis. Erichthonios was then left to found a new dynasty of the early kings of Athens. Although here the child is shown fully human, this rare Kyzikene stater is undoubtedly a representation of the beginning of this tale.

Gold coins from time of Crusades found in Israeli ruins

Israeli archaeologists have found buried treasure: more than 100 gold dinar coins from the time of the Crusades, bearing the names and legends of local sultans, blessings and more -- and worth as much as $500,000.

The joint team from Tel Aviv University and Israel’s Nature and Parks Authority were working at Apollonia National Park, an ancient Roman settlement on the coast used by the Crusaders between 1241 and 1265, when they literally found a pot of gold.

“All in all, we found some 108 dinals and quarter dinars, which makes it one of the largest gold coin hoards discovered in a medieval site in the land of Israel,” Prof. Oren Tal, chairman of Tel Aviv University’s Department of Archaeology, told FoxNews.com.

The Christian order of the Knights Hospitaller had taken up residence in the castle in Apollonia; it was one of their most important fortresses in the area. The hoard of coins was buried on the eve of the site's downfall after a long siege by a large and well-prepared Muslim army.

Since its destruction in late April 1265 it was never resettled. As the destruction of the well-fortified castle grew near, one of the Crusader’s leaders sought to hide his stash in a potsherd, possibly to retrieve it later on

The Didcot Hoard

This incredible Roman hoard was found by metal detectorist Bill Darley in 1995, near the Oxfordshire town of Didcot.

This hoard consists of 126 gold coins or aurei. The aureus (from the latin for “golden”) was the standard gold denomination of the Roman Empire and was valued at 25 silver denarii. Though the aureus was the same size as the denarius, the increased density of gold gave it twice the weight, usually between 7-8 grams in the first century. The aureus is also known for its consistently outstanding purity level, near to 24-carat gold in excess of 99%, putting many more modern “gold” coins to shame.

The amazing Didcot Hoard can be viewed at the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford
