Ancient Coins: Gold Coins
Gold! The yellow metal has been the source of fascination and synonymous with royalty, wealth and power throughout human history.
Malleable, attractive and valuable, golden coins represented the pinnacle of coinage art, being the tool used by states to project their imagery across the territories and the main way for its citizens to store big sums of wealth in a compressed format.
Lets explore 1900 years of gold coinage through 13 example pieces, and see what symbols and messages the ancient peoples chose to transmit in this very expensive medium.

A very special thanks to the people of r/Ancientcoins on Reddit, without their help, we wouldn't be able to put these pieces together.
In particular, a huge thanks to r/Doofucius, r/RexAddison and r/KungFuPossum for sharing their coins for this presentation.
