MACEDON. Kingdom of Macedon. Alexander III (the Great), 336-323 B.C. AV Stater (8.34 gms), Uncertain mint. ANACS EF 45.
Pr-Unlisted. Obverse: Helmeted head of Athena right; Reverse: Nike standing left, holding wreath and stylis; no controls visible. Presenting a good deal of brilliance and a well centered, well struck obverse, this example remains a bit of a mystery, as the lack of control prevents a closer attribution. Though some types are known without controls on the reverse, the obverse style--especially within the hair detail of Athena--is dissimilar from those in Price.
Estimate: $2000 - $2500
