Golden Dragon coins featuring famous kings of Westeros are struck in "Merlin's Gold" King Jaehaerys I Targaryen ruled Westeros for over five decades, becoming the longest ruling of the Targaryen Dynasty, and was referred to as the "Old King". Jaeharerys brought a time of great peace, aided by his beloved sister-wife Good Queen Alysanne. The coin portrays a dragon on the reverse. King Joffrey Baratheon ruled with whim and caprice. His cruelty and food shortages and other hardships made him an unpopular king. He was nearly killed in a riot sparked by his temper. The reverse pictures the coat-of-arms. Daemon Blackfyre was the bastard son of Aegon IV Targaryen. He led the Blackfyre Rebellion and with the ancestral Valyrian steel blade Blackfyre, won the Battle of The Mender, before finally being killed at Redgrass Field, thus ending the rebellion. A dragon in flight is on the reverse.
