| Reversbeschreibung | A youthful nude jockey seated on a galloping horse moving to right, holding the reins in his left hand and a palm branch of victory in his raised right hand. Beneath the horse's belly, the Macedonian letter Λ (lambda) appears above a torch serving as a mint control symbol, while a dolphin oriented to right is placed beneath the horse's foreleg as an additional control mark. The ethnic legend ΦΙΛΙΠΠΟΥ runs in the right field, identifying the coin as issued in the name of Philip. The composition is dynamic and energetic, reflecting the celebrated equestrian victories of Philip II at the Olympic Games. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
These tetradrachms were struck at Amphipolis well after Philip II's death in 336 BC — posthumous issues produced under Cassander and his successors as a deliberate assertion of Macedonian dynastic continuity during a period when the Diadochi were carving up Alexander's empire. Amphipolis had been Philip's primary silver mint, and its infrastructure remained intact. Keeping it producing Philippic types was as much a political calculation as a financial one.
