Alexander the Great Pendant
€100.00
Necklace with Reproduction of Silver Coin of Alexander the Great.
The great military commander is depicted on this reproduction wearing the horns of Ammon Zeus confirming his divine status as “Son of Zeus”, as recognized by the Egyptian priesthood in the Sanctuary of Zeus Amun at Siwa Oasis. Although the Alexandrian tetradrachms dominated international markets after 333 BC and Alexander’s victory at the Battle of Issus, none of them was stamped with his image before his death, ensuring the continuity of coinage throughout the Hellenistic times until the arrival of Romans.
