| Additional information |
Miletus was among the Greek cities that continued striking bronze coinage in Alexander's name after his death in Babylon in June 323 BC, during the regency of Philip III Arrhidaeus. These issues belong to the chaotic interval before the Diadochi wars fractured the empire beyond recovery. Price 2102 is a Milesian civic bronze, not a royal mint product, meaning local magistrates retained meaningful control over small-denomination production even as Macedonian successors fought over the larger silver coinage.
