Macedonia, Koinon of Æ Time of Severus Alexander - Very rare
*Very rare*
*Just 4 specimens known to RPC*
Koinon of Macedon AE (8,79g,24mm) times of Severus Alexander (222-235) Issue: One neocoria - Type B flowing hair, r.
Obv: ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ; diademed head of Alexander the Great, right, with flowing hair; below, star
Rev: ΚΟΙΝΟΝ ΜΑΚΕΔΟΝΩΝ ΝΕΩ; Alexander the Great riding Bucephalus galloping, right, his mantle floating behind him, hurling spear
Ref: RPC VI №: 350 (temporary)
A remarkable and elusive bronze issue struck in Macedonia during the reign of Severus Alexander (222–235). Notably, this coin shares a key detail with the example illustrated in RPC: the absence of the star beneath Bucephalus, despite the catalog description stating its presence. Whether this reflects a cataloging error or an unpublished variant, the discrepancy adds scholarly interest and makes this coin a compelling candidate for further study.
Preserved in good, appealing condition, this coin offers a rare chance to acquire a type that not only captivates with its dynamic imagery but also raises questions that remain open in current numismatic research.
A prime acquisition for collectors of Roman Provincial coinage or Alexander iconography—rare, historically significant, and visually engaging.
