Tetradrachm In the name of Alexander III, Corinth

Corinth became a Macedonian-controlled mint following Philip II's decisive interventions in Greek affairs, and it remained active under the successors well into the early third century. This piece falls within the posthumous Alexander series — coins struck in Alexander's name by the Diadochi and their subordinates after his death in 323 BC, a practice that persisted for decades as his image carried more monetary authority than any successor's own name. Price 691 places this emission squarely within that contested period when Demetrius Poliorcetes held significant influence over the Greek mainland.
