Persian

The Achaemenid Persian Empire struck the first royal coinage of the Near East. Its gold daric and silver siglos, first issued under Darius I in the late sixth century BC, show the Great King as a running archer with bow and spear. The daric was prized across the Greek world and gave its name to a standard of value for two centuries.

Our Persian coins include gold darics and silver sigloi of the fifth century BC, many certified by NGC. Every coin is guaranteed authentic.
