[QUOTE="kirispupis, post: 7309727, member: 118780"]Wow! I second that comment! This coin is stunning. In terms of Gonatas vs Doson, I found this older paper (1). While I'm not a numismatist, his logic certainly seems sound based on the hoard evidence and the images on the coins. I would be curious to know what new evidence Panagopoulou has found that refutes it. I have neither coin, though a Gonatas is on my extended radar. I'm still on the lookout for a paper that discusses the horse. I did read this one (2). It doesn't discuss the horse, but it does cover 348 BCE as a major transition for Philip II as he looked to broaden his borders. I'm still thinking the change in direction has something to do with that. 1) Merker, Irwin L. "THE SILVER COINAGE OF ANTIGONOS GONATAS AND ANTIGONOS DOSON."
