Ancient coin detail

The ancient coin is a coin with the symbol of Zamorak. Players may find this whilst working in the excavational area of the Varrock Museum by cleaning uncleaned finds. When a player returns it to display case 44 (ground floor, middle row, case to the west), they are rewarded with 10 kudos. It cannot be obtained after it is returned to its display case.

This coin is interesting because it is Zamorakian, from the time when the city was named Senntisten, before the Saradominists took over and renamed it Saranthium. This suggests that sometime during the God Wars followers of Zamorak controlled this city.

A battered and bent coin with Zamorakian markings. It bears the word 'Senntisten', which we believe to be the original name of the city, Saranthium, before it was rebuilt by those loyal to Saradomin. Partial numbers on the coin would indicate that it is from the year 3740, presumably from the 3rd Age.
