Description
Conan Series Stygian Copper Lunar Coin:
Crafted of pure copper, this 8 1/2-gram Conan Series Stygian Copper Lunar Coin measures about 1-inch tall x 4/5-inch wide. The snake priestess and the word "STYGIA" grace the front, while a representation of the god Set appears on the reverse.
This ancient oblong coin of fabled Stygia depicts the Moon Goddess in portrait mode on the obverse, holding two vipers in her hand, signifying control of commerce and war. The hieroglyphs incised behind her speak of invoices, bills of lading, and the boring necessities of the mundane material world. The vertical orientation of the image implies the dominance of mankind over nature, and the control of populations by the ruling class.
The reverse side of the coin is in landscape mode and features the serpent god Set. This side depicts the spirit world where demons lurk, spells are cast, and the mighty serpent god that disgorged the universe waits. The horizontal depiction signifies that humankind must be submissive to the will of Set, for he may choose to take you at any time.
Conan cared not a whit for any such nonsense. To such as he, these coins were nothing but cash with which to purchase wine, food, weapons, and women. And as such valuta, they are good money, worth a heady draught in a low-life tavern or a toss of the dice in a street corner game of chance. But these days it would take many together to secure a night of pleasure in a Nemedian brothel or a solid meal at a Corinthian Inn.
As they say, "A lunar just doesn't buy what it used to!" So make sure you have several. King Conan's Coffers have plenty and to spare, so pull up a chair and join the game. You are most welcome to join Conan on his next adventure, whatever that may be. You can be sure it won't be boring!
