Gold stater
Unknown Artist
Gold coins of this type were minted for over forty years at the two principal royal mints in Macedon, Pella and Amphipolis. The trident and details of the horses' legs on this coin indicate that it was minted at Amphipolis in the years immediately after the death of Alexander the Great.
