John060167 Posted February 28, 2023 · Member Share Posted February 28, 2023 Hello! After itching for one of these gold staters types for so long, I finally picked one up! This one is actually of Philip III, so not of Alexander the great, but has that iconic Athena and Nike on it so close enough for me. Went for a great price at Naville! Kingdom of Macedon. Philip III (r. 323-317BC). AV Stater, 19mm, 8.56g, 10h struck 323-317BC, Babylon mint Price P180 Anyone have any kind of greek gold/electrum? Please share!

I like the little griffin on the helmet you have, and the nike is of nice style too. Do you happen to have any other greek gold? Theyre quite pricey unfortunately:-( Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kapphnwn Posted March 1, 2023 · Supporter Share Posted March 1, 2023 Philip III Av Stater Lampsakos 323-317 BC Obv Helmeted head of Athena right, Rv Nike standing left Price P 13 8.59 grms 18 mm Photo by W Hansen Philip's coins are completely overshadowed by the coinage of Alexander. However his coinage is very uusefull in the study of that coinage as it does give some evidence for which coins are lifetime and which are posthumous. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
