The Croeseid coin represents the world earliest coinage, symbolizing ancient commerce and sovereign strength. This lydian coin ring brings the historic Sardis design to anyone drawn to classical antiquity. Depicting the confronting lion and bull in relief within a beaded border and hammered band, it captures the character of ancient coinage for everyday wear.The oval face depicts the confronting foreparts of a roaring lion and a charging bull, inspired by the ancient Croeseid coinage of King Croesus. A delicate beaded border surrounds the irregular coin center, while the wide band features a tactile hammered finish. The recessed areas catch dark oxidation to bring out anatomical details, while polished, vermeil, and two-tone finishes let the animal figures stand out distinctly.
