Comment
Signed by the engraver Atha....Interesting fact
The Herakleia Stater was minted during the reign of King Alexander I, who ruled the city-state of Herakleia in Lucania (present-day Basilicata, Italy) from 340 BC to 330 BC. The coin features an image of the mythical creature, the Griffin, on one side and the profile of the king on the other. The Griffin was a symbol of protection and strength, reflecting the city's strong military and economic status during that time.
