| Additional information |
Struck at Amphipolis in the immediate aftermath of Alexander's death in Babylon, this issue falls within the contested regency period when Perdiccas held power in Alexander's name. The Amphipolis mint was among the most prolific producers of Alexander-type coinage and continued striking under successive Macedonian rulers well into the third century, making precise attribution of early posthumous issues genuinely difficult. Price 117 places this among the earliest posthumous groups, distinguished by specific die linkages rather than any inscribed date.
