6. Stater

Answer: Coins

The Stater was an ancient coin used in several regions of ancient Greece and its colonies. "Stater" means weight and was a reference standard with silver and gold coins widely circulated from the 7th century BCE to 50 CE. It is generally accepted that the first state-issued coinage was the Lydian Stater, made from a natural alloy of silver and gold. Iconography on staters varies hugely, usually associated with the mints and states issuing them.
7. Daric

Answer: Coins

The Daric was a monetary unit and gold coin of ancient Persia. This standard was popular for around three centuries. One gold Daric was roughly a month's wage for a mercenary soldier. These gold coins can be recognized quite easily because of an archer with bow and arrow depicted on one side and a punched incuse pattern on the other side.
8. Sestertius

Answer: Coins

The Sestertius was an ancient Roman coin (numus sestertius) and unit of counting money. The term refers to "two and a half". First issued by the Roman Republic (c. 230 BCE) as a small silver coin, the sestertius was later coined as copper and brass issues during the Roman Empire.

Its relative buying power and equivalence to other monetary standards changed over time. In coin design and in records of transactions, the acronym HS and variants were used to abbreviate "sestertius".
9. Zuz

Answer: Coins

The Zuz was an ancient Jewish silver coin dating back to the Bar Kokhba revolt of 132 CE. These coins used roman silver coins as their metal base, as a message of defiance for a free Jerusalem. They usually depict two trumpets on one face and a lyre on the opposing side.

The Hebrew word "Zuz" is associated with the concept of movement. Some scholars believe this relates to the coin due to the concept of money moving fast helps share and create wealth.
10. As

Answer: Coins

As (pl. assēs) was a primitive bronze coin of small value first coined around 280 BCE by the Roman Republic through rough casting. These coins were heavy, bulky substitutes for the beautiful Greek coins they replaced. They usually depicted galley bows and the double-faced deity Janus. Later, during the Empire, following a major monetary reform put forward by Augustus, the As was reissued in copper by striking, with smaller sizes and varied proportions to other coin standards.
