Macedon. Alexander the Great. Lampsacus. 330-320 BC. AV Stater (8.54g, 12h). Müller 620; Price 1368. Lightly toned. Perfectly centered and struck on a broad flan. A coin of great elegance. Superb extremely fine. From a private collection The coinage of Alexander the Great was the most important currency of the Hellenistic period. The winged figure of Victory on reverse holds a stylis, the upper part of a ship's mast, which indicates victory in a naval battle. As Price has suggested in his monumental catalogue, this victory depiction was supposed to remind the Greeks of the successful battle of Salamis (480 BC) and to give them courage in their fight against the Persian empire
