Macedonian Kingdom, Alexander the Great, 336 - 323 B.C.
|Alexander| |the| |Great|, |Macedonian| |Kingdom,| |Alexander| |the| |Great,| |336| |-| |323| |B.C.|, This type was attributed to Bargylia, a center for Artemis Kindyas worship, until an obverse was die linked to Mylasa. However, the die linked coin may not actually be the same Artemis Kindyas reverse, it may be similar but Athena. Discovery of additional specimens may clarify the attribution. -- The Coinage in the Name of Alexander the Great and Philip Arrhidaeus by Martin J. Price
