Title: Alexander Type Tetradrachm
Post by: Adam D on July 30, 2019, 06:22:15 pm

Hi Everyone, this is my first post, but I've been reading the forum for a very long time.  It will be nice to start participating. I found this Tetradrachm not too long ago and couldn't resist.  I love the artistic style, I've not seen another quite like it.

Nice coin. The reverse is exceptional, and the second picture of the obverse shows it has nice details not captured in photo 2. 

Glad you decided to start posting!

Spectacular reverse artistry. Possibly the best I have ever seen.....and I have seen many, many.
Looks like the Miletos mint.
