History of the Artifact
Now available to you are genuine Ancient Macedonian Alexander the Great Bronze coins - 2400+ year old coins from Classical Greece.
These authentic, history loaded coins of Alexander the Great, feature on the obverse the head of Herakles wearing the skin of the Nemean Lion he killed in one of the famous ‘12 Labors of Hercule” - it is speculated that this rendition of Herakles’ portrait may have been heavily inspired on Alexander’s own features. The reverse features Herakles’ quiver (Arrow case) placed above his bow as well as his club.
As is famously known, Alexander the Great, aged only twenty years became king of Macedonia in 336 B.C., in a matter of years following his crowning, he demonstrated he was perhaps the greatest general of all time and an invincible empire builder. In the course of just thirteen years before his death at Babylon in 323 B.C, he changed the Mediterranean and Near Eastern world forever by bringing the territory of the Persian Empire under Greek rule.
Made of Bronze, these coins held less value than their silver (Drachm) and gold counterparts and were thus more frequently used in day to day transactions to buy bread and wine by the citizens living under Alexander the Great’s rule.
