| Reversbeschreibung | Zeus Aëtophoros enthroned to the left on a high-backed throne, his body draped from the waist, holding a long scepter upright in his extended left hand and an eagle with closed wings perched on his outstretched right hand. The legend ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ appears to the right of the throne. In the left field, a Boeotian shield is placed to the upper left, while a coiled serpent is depicted in the exergual area beneath the throne, serving as a mint control symbol characteristic of the Pella issue. |

Struck at Pella — the Macedonian royal capital — in the decade following Alexander's death in 323 BC, this issue belongs to the contested period when Antipater's son Cassander was consolidating control over Macedonia proper. The continued use of Alexander's name and types by Cassander was purely political: his legitimacy rested entirely on proximity to the dead king's authority, not any dynastic claim of his own. Minting under Alexander's name was the only viable fiction available.
Price 249 is a well-documented emission within the Pella sequence. The dies fall within a period when Pella's output was substantial, supplying military pay for ongoing conflicts among the Successors.
