Ancient Gold Coins

Ancient gold coins are both beautiful to look at and exciting to own.

In this category you will find a selection of gold coins from the Roman, Greek, Celtic and Byzantine empires, to view our full stock you need to go to the individual categories or use the ‘search’ box above. For example, to view all of the gold coins we currently have for sale you could type ‘gold’. Gold coins generally don’t tarnish so these will look today as they did back in Ancient times, they would have been highly treasured and only lined the pockets of the wealthy due to their high value. Three Roman solidi could buy you a slave in the 4^th Century AD!
