Cleveland Museum of Art

Two gold coins are shown side by side on a gray background. The coin on the left features a man with long hair and wings, wearing armor and holding a spear. He stands with his right foot on the neck of a large serpent-like creature with a long tail. The coin's edge has raised lettering. The coin on the right depicts a ship with three masts and a shield. The shield is on the front of the ship and appears to have a cross on it. The ship is on wavy lines, representing water. The coin's edge also has raised lettering. Both coins are gold-colored and have a raised design. The designs on both coins are in the center, with the lettering on the outer edge.
