Alexander Tetradrachms have arrived!

The Alexander Tetradrachms have arrived! They are simply amazing coins. The Temnos mint produced some of the finest examples of tetradrachms of Alexander the Great. Unlike other mints, these temnos issues were minted on a huge flan, much more space then necessary. This space is not wasted however. One only needs to look at the intricate reverse to appreciate the beauty in the fine detail. They are certainly one of my personal favourites, and for this reason I chose to prominently display one in our website's logo.
