The collection, discovered in 1949 in Bulgaria near the town of Panagyurishte, consists of nine gold vessels with a total weight of 6,100 kg. The vessels are made of solid 23-carat gold with very rich decoration and ornamentation.The gold beverage set includes a phiale (a dish) and eight rhytons (cups) in the form of different zoomorphic and anthropomorphic igures. The treasure used to be the possession of an unknown Thracian ruler of the Odryssian tribe who reigned at the end of IV c. and the beginning of III c. B. C.

It remains to this day the most beautiful gold service in the world, a masterpiece of Thracian art and invaluable evidence of high artistic style in antiquity.

The Mint offers you collections of three and six medals with images of gold vessels in a luxurious wooden box.
