Mint State Lifetime Issue

Lot # 73 - KINGS OF MACEDON. Alexander III 'the Great' (336-323 BC). GOLD Stater. Uncertain mint in western Asia Minor. Lifetime issue. Obv: Head of Athena right, wearing Corinthian helmet decorated with serpent.Rev: AΛEΞANΔPOY. Nike standing left, holding wreath and stylis Control: to lower left, eagle standing left with closed wings.Price 3125 (Salamis).Already with Philip II the occupation of the Mount Pangaion region with its rich gold mines had made possible the abundant emission of gold coins, something that until then had been throughout Greece rather rare and linked to extraordinary circumstances or moments of crisis. Alexander, who imposed a single coinage throughout his vast empire, was able to issue Staters and their fractions in gold, using the Attic weight as the unit of measure. On the Staters the head of the goddess Athena with Corinthian helmet was depicted on the obverse, while a winged Nike was reproduced on the reverse. On silver tetradrachms, on the other hand, the head of Herakles with lion skin was depicted on the obverse and Zeus seated on a throne on the reverse (Phidian model). Toward the end of his reign there is an assimilation of the ruler with Herakles. The practice, derived from the Eastern world of reproducing the portrait of the ruler on the coin, represents a change with Alexander's coinage. But as if the human figure did not dare to suddenly replace that of the gods, the image is clothed with religious content, through its deification or identification with the deity. Even after his death for a long time Tetradrachms with the effigy of Alexander continued to be issued by his successors. The Macedonian king had the possibility to exploit for his coinage a large amount of precious metal from the vast empire he had conquered. The extremely rich mines scattered throughout this territory also made his successors self-sufficient. The coin from that time became a symbol of the ruler's power and absolute authority; no longer protected by the image of deities, it became an instrument of propaganda and power.

Controls: H on amphora, ME below; to left anchor and star; all within wreath.Thompson 364e; HGC 4, 1602.Among the Greek poleis, Athens is undoubtedly the city that denotes the greatest monetary development. The earliest coinage followed the reforms attributed to Solon on the introduction of Attic weights to replace the Eginetic ones. These early coins, called "Wappenmünzen," were replaced by the "owls" at the end of the 6th century: tetradrachms marked with the head of Athena and the owl, next to which is now the ethnic of the Athenians. These types will last, with variations in style, until the end of silver production (c. mid-1st century). The most noticeable change occurs with the so-called "new style," established from the beginning of the 2nd century BC. In these issues the owl is surrounded by an olive wreath, which is why the tetradrachms are referred to in the inscriptions as "stephanephoroi" (= wreath bearers). Coins of new style also bear inscriptions with the names of magistrates. Condition: Near extremely fine.Weight: 16.83 g. Diameter: 30 mm.

Zeus standing right, holding labrys and sceptre.SNG Copenhagen 596-7; SNG von Aulock 2375-6; HN Online 241.The importance of Halikarnassos grew with Artemisia I, the legendary queen who fought against the Persians at Cape Artemisium and Salamis, proving herself to be one of the few great generals to emerge with honor with Xerxes. The Ligdamid dynasty, to which Artemisia I belonged, ruled all of Caria and had Milas as its capital; the ancient city was the most important center of Caria, a situation that changed with the Ecatomnid dynasty. With the defeat at Salamis, the city came under the control of the Delian League, but was later reconquered by Tissaphernes and subsequently placed under the control of Hekatomnos. Hekatomnos had three sons, Maussolos, Hydrieus, and Pixodaros, and two daughters, Artemisia II and Ada, who married the first two brothers and ruled Caria for 50 years. Maussolos, in particular, greatly expanded the domains of his kingdom, extending them as far as Lydia, playing an important role in the revolt of Chios and Rhodes against the Second Delian League and, above all, moving the capital of Caria to Halikarnassos. Following his death, Artemisia II, his sister and wife, commissioned the construction of the legendary Mausoleum of Halikarnassos, which was considered one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. After Artemisia came Idrieus, who completed the mausoleum and restored the temple of Zeus at Labraunda; he also supported the Persian reconquest of Cyprus, although it seems that relations with the Persians were very compromised. Upon Idrieus' death, the throne briefly passed to Ada, who was, however, driven out by Pixodaros. Unlike his predecessor, the youngest of the brothers was keen to ingratiate himself with the Persians, so much so that he gave his daughter in marriage to Orontobates, a Persian general. Actually, Pixodaros also had a great friendship with Philip III of Macedon, to the point that he offered his sister in marriage to him. When Pixodaros died, Orontobates took the throne but, thanks to Ada's support, he was overthrown by Alexander the Great who, in order to guarantee his succession to the throne of Caria, became Ada's adopted son. However, the siege carried out by the great Greek leader dealt a fatal blow to Halikarnassos, which never fully recovered from that moment onwards. Condition: Good very fine.Weight: 6.97 g.
