Coson

The Kosons are the only known gold coins minted by the Dacians. They are named after the Greek inscription "ΚΟΣΩΝ", which appears on the reverse. The name Koson is believed to refer to an otherwise unattested Dacian king, although some scholars have proposed an identification with Cotison, a Dacian ruler mentioned by Horace and Suetonius. The staters are notable for their Roman-inspired iconography and are thought to have been struck in the 1st century BC.
