Summary

Description A gold stater coin (weighing 8.31 g) from Geto-Dacian Scythia (modern-day Transylvania), dating from the mid-first century B.C. The obverse side of the coin, shown on the left, depicts a Roman consul accompanied by two lictors, with a monogram to the left and underneath the name ΚΟΣΩΝ, the king under whom this coin was minted. This is now thought to be the Geto-Dacian king Coson. The coin's reverse side, shown on the right, depicts an eagle standing on a scepter and holding a wreath.
