Genuine Crusader's Cross Medieval Coin set in a Gold Plated Necklace, featuring an Authentic ancient Armenian Cilicia bronze coin, the coin was minted in the 13th Century AD.
♦ January 6, 1198 AD, the Royal period of Armenian kings came to be. Prince Levon II was crowned Levon I, King of Cilician Armenia, and the Golden Age had begun.
Cilician Armenian coins were minted in copper, bronze, silver, and, in a few very rare occurrences, gold. Their styles were quite unique, comprising stylized busts, Armenian text, and sometimes incorporating contemporaneous European Crusader crosses and iconography, which lasted until the end of the kingdom in 1375 AD.
♦ The coin in this listing was minted at the time of king Smpad (Smbat), 1296- 1298 AD - Front shows the king on horseback, on reverse a cross with lilies .
♦ Excellent quality coin with many clear visible details and a lovely grey-greenish patina- light on front and dark on reverse. The coin is 700 years old!
👉 Please note that photos are taken under bright light, so the coin looks lighter than in regular daylight.
