Three Wise Men – Authentic Coins of the Kings of the East
A museum-level Biblical collection you can hold in your hands.
For over two thousand years, the story of the Magi—the Wise Men who followed the Star of Bethlehem to honor the newborn Jesus—has been retold in every Nativity scene, every Christmas pageant, and every singing of “We Three Kings.” But behind the tradition lies a deeper historical truth: the Magi were not simply wandering mystics… they were high-ranking scholars and emissaries from the East, part of the Zoroastrian priestly caste from which we get the word magic.
Ancient sources and modern scholarship now suggest that the “three kings” may have been ambassadors representing three powerful rulers whose realms bordered the Holy Land during the lifetime of Christ:
• Azes II — King of Bactria
• Gondophares — King of Indo-Parthia
• Aretas IV — King of Nabataea (the kingdom of Petra)
A once-in-a-lifetime Biblical collection
This remarkable set brings their world to life with three authentic coins issued by these very rulers. Each piece is over 2,000 years old and would have circulated in the regions traditionally associated with the journey of the Magi.
These coins are not replicas—they are genuine artifacts from the age of Jesus, struck by the kings whose ambassadors may have knelt at the manger.
Why this set matters
Direct Biblical era connection — coins circulating when the Nativity events unfolded
Three different ancient kingdoms represented in one curated collection
A perfect centerpiece for collectors of Biblical history, Christian tradition, or the ancient Near East
A tangible link to the Christmas story—the kind of history you can hold
Owning this set is like stepping into the pages of Matthew’s Gospel. These are the coins of the kings from the East—brought together for the first time in a powerful, story-driven collection.
