From Ancient Greek δᾱρεικός (dāreikós), from Old Persian *daryakah. Doublet of gold and yellow.

Considered by classical authors to be from Δαρεῖος (Dareîos, “Darius”) who standardized the coinage as such, but this is a folk etymology.

daric (plural darics)

1. A gold coin from Persian Empire, introduced by Darius the Great (522-486 BC) and used until Alexander the Great's invasion (330 BC).
