<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Terence Cheesman, post: 6293787, member: 86498&quot;]Oh my God this is so embarrassing what I understood to be true about some of my coins back in May 2017 is no longer true today. Here are the two coins I posted back then and their more up to date information,</p><p>Philip III Tetradrachm of Arados In the name and types of Alexander 322-320 BC. Price 3332 17.10 grms 24 mm Photo by W. Hansen[ATTACH=full]1249437[/ATTACH]The title of Basileos wasn&#039;t adopted on the coinage until 322 BC which makes this coin posthumous</p><p>Alexander III Ar Tetradrachm Damaskos mint&nbsp; 325-323 BC Price 3204 L Taylor 192 This coin cited&nbsp;&nbsp; 17.20 grms 26 mm Photo by W. Hansen[ATTACH=full]1249452[/ATTACH]Price thought that this mint started after the Battlle of Issue but it seems more likely that this mint was opened later to facilitate the conversion of specie from the various local coinages to that of Alexander so that his army could be paid off once it returned from India.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
