You’ve seen plenty of tetradrachms of Philip of Macedon and Alexander the Great and are familiar with
their standard portraits and designs – this is something completely different and far more
sophisticated! Here is a unique opportunity to own spectacular reproduction of one of the most
impressive ancient coinage masterpieces. This is an AUTHENTIC COPY REPLICA of medallions
which the Roman Empire awarded at the games and contests held in the cities of Macedonia, in
honor of Alexander the Great and his father Philip of Macedon in 230 AD.
The original coin is in gold and is property of Bibliothèque nationale de France in Paris - NOTE THAT
THERE IS ONLY ONE SUCH COIN IN THE WORLD (unlike Alexander's tetradrachm which are
plentiful) – this is an AUTHENTIC REPRODUCTION of that single original and is marked with the
logo of the owner BnF. Because the original coin in Paris is priceless - this reproduction is most
special and unique among all reproductions of ancient coins. All other reproductions came from
coins which have known value.
Obverse: Head of Alexander the Great right wearing the lion’s skin - struck in excessively high relief.
Reverse: ΒΑCΙΛΕΥC AΛEXANΔPOC. Alexander the Great on his horse Buchephalus in heroic pose
brandishing a spear to the lion beneath.
Diameter: 2.5” (65 mm)
Made of Silver 905
Struck on a large flan, well centered in an excessively high relief – beautiful portrait masterpiece!
Please also view the other 4 medallions we offer with the portraits of Alexander’s father Philip of
Macedon, his mother Olympias, and Athena.

Macedon, the Seleucid kings, the Ptolemaic kings, the Bactrian kings, kings of Thrace, kings of
