Egypt, Alexandria. Severus Alexander 222-235. Tetradrachm (Billon, 25.76 mm, 14.22 g). Rome mint (for Alexandria). Dated RY 5 = AD 225/6. Α ΚΑΙ Μ ΑYΡ СЄYHAP ΑΛЄΞΑΝΔPOC ЄYCЄB Laureate and draped bust right. Rev. Serapis wearing kalathos, sitting left on throne, holding sceptre; left at his feet, Cerberus. Dattari-Savio 4361. Geissen 2435-2436. RPC online 10332. Emmett 3135. Nice dark brown patina. About Extremely Fine. Ex Kölner Münzkabinett, Auction 115, 29.10.2021, lot 217. Here is a first remarkable tetradrachm belonging to a peculiar Alexandrian series of the so-called "Roman style", closely related to the current issues of the Latin area of the empire: this suggesting the presence in the Alexandria mint of good engravers coming directly from Rome. In the series are coins minted exclusively in years 4 (224-225 AD), 5 (225-226 AD) and 7 (227-228 AD) of Severus Alexander's reign and are distinguished from ordinary issues by the particular classical idealistic refinement of the images and by the slightly larger size.
