In my opinion this is another wonderful Apollo head. The picture comes close to a portrait, but is a mystery like the coin I showed from Delphi. This coin was minted in 322 BC, the great Philip II had already been dead for 15 years, his son Alexander III having died a year before. The coin was produced in Magnesia on the river Maiandros and the die was cut by an outstanding engraver. Over the past few years, over 100 coins from this die were found recently in a hoard and came into the market. Out of this hoard, the coin you see is one of the best struck and preserved pieces from this hoard.
