    I'm in the market for a Lysmachus Tetradrachm but for now here is my one and only Alexander.
    This coin was issued 1 to 3 years after his death but what took precidence for me was getting the most appealing coin with the finest, most lifelike portrait I could afford.
    Paid just under $500 USD
