| 表面の説明 | Helmeted head of Athena facing right, rendered in fine high relief characteristic of the Macedonian royal mint. The goddess wears a Corinthian helmet pushed back on her head, adorned with an elaborately crested plume decorated with a coiled serpent on the bowl. Her hair flows in carefully engraved locks beneath the helmet cheek-guards, and she wears a necklace visible at the truncation. The portrait displays the idealized Hellenic artistic style of the late 4th century BC. |

Alexander's gold staters were not merely coinage — they were the financial engine of his campaigns, struck in massive quantities from Persian treasury bullion seized at Persepolis and Susa. The injection of that captured wealth into circulation fundamentally destabilized Greek commodity prices for a generation. Price 1917 places this issue among the eastern mint series, produced as the campaign pushed beyond the Euphrates.
These staters circulated far beyond the empire's borders, turning up in hoards from southern Gaul to modern Afghanistan — evidence of how thoroughly Macedonian monetary weight standards displaced local systems.
