Highest Certified Examples in the World
Alexander the Great was born in 356 BC, the son of King Philip II. Although he is famous for being one of history's greatest military strategists and conquered most of the known world, his greatness stems from the wisdom he learned from his tutor, Aristotle.
Alexander became king before he reached the age of 20 and he immediately set out to end the wars the Persians waged against the western world for over 200 years. His goal was clear - to conquer the Persians in what he felt was going to be the "war to end all wars." B
eing a student of Aristotle, he did not want to kill and plunder the enemy, but rather to treat the Persian people as his brothers and bring them a better life.
Alexander the Great died in 323 BC in Babylon from unknown causes, and after his death, his generals fought over control of the vast empire for the next 40 years.
Today, the greatness of Alexander can be very much be seen in his coinage. Most surviving examples are very worn, however, we just acquired a small group of silver drachms that are the HIGHEST CERTIFIED examples known today.
- Each coin is certified by NGC Ancients in Choice Mint State condition--none are graded higher. These are also lifetime issues, much rarer than those issued after his death in 323 BC.
- Each has been given the FINE STYLE designation by NGC, implying them to be of the highest artistic quality.
- We have a very small quantity of these coins available, and we're offering them at just $2,195 each with free shipping.
