Anybody read Georges Le Rider's 2003 book Alexandre Le Grand: Monnaie, finances et politique? I was taking a look at it in a local university
library yesterday. It's in
French, so I can make out only relatively little of it. I seem to recall reading (don't remember where) that
Le Rider attributed to Susa and Seleuceia some of the
Alexander tetradrachms that
Price attributed to Babylon. Anybody know if this is true, and if so, what was
his rationale? I know that
Price expressed uncertainty about Babylon, that
his Group Two 'Babylon' tets (
Price 3599-3685) might have actually beed issued at Susa, and that all the coins he attributed tentatively to 'Babylon' might have been issued instead at Susa or Ectabana. Would
Price 3620/Müller 697 and
Price 3722/Müller 727 be among those that
Le Rider differed with
Price on, if he differed? Thanks.
