Beschrijving keerzijde Nike standing in left profile, rendered in flowing drapery, her large spread wings prominently displayed behind her. She holds a wreath extended in her right hand and a ship's stylis (naval scepter) in her left, attributes emblematic of naval victory. The legend ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ runs vertically in the right field, and a KT monogram — the civic symbol of Kition — appears beneath her left wing, identifying this issue as struck under Pumiathon of Kition in the name of Alexander III.

Aanvullende informatie

Pumiathon was the last king of Kition, the Phoenician city-kingdom on Cyprus, ruling under shifting allegiances as Alexander's campaigns reshaped the eastern Mediterranean. He initially sided with Alexander but was later condemned and executed — likely around 312 BC — after backing the wrong faction in the wars of the Diadochi. These gold staters, struck in Alexander's name but under Pumiathon's authority, date to the narrow window when Kition still functioned as a semi-autonomous mint, one of several Cypriot workshops producing Alexandrine-type coinage during the conquest period.

Price 3100 is among the rarer Cypriot issues in the Alexander series.
