    Hi,

    Someone from a Stoics discussion group posted this Alex III tetradrachm. Not having Price, I can't discern which mint it's from. I tried WildWinds and even downloaded all the symbols used on Alexander coinage but couldn't find it. Without the mint, I can't tell if it's a lifetime or posthumous issue. It seems quite nice tho.

    Actually, they didn't even post the denomination, but it seems clearly a tet from the module.
