Jay1234 Valued Member United States 379 Posts	Posted 09/07/2019 8:06 pm I think this coin may be Alexander III or Philip II of Macedonia. 18mm and 3.2g. There's text over the horse but I can't make it out. Any thoughts? Report this Post to the Staff

Jay1234 Valued Member United States 379 Posts	Posted 09/07/2019 10:40 pm Is it the bust that makes you think it's Philip II? Report this Post to the Staff
