ΚOI MA-KЄΔONΩN NЄΩKOPΩ The emperor on horseback right, raising right hand in salute. AMNG III, 88. Varbanov 3078 var. Rare. Very fine.


From a European collection, formed before 2005.

Bronzes from the Macedonian Koinon that show an imperial portrait are surprisingly rare. They allow for more precise dating of the extensive pseudo-autonomous Alexander 'the Great' issues of the era.
