He became the king of Macedonia in 336 BC at the age of 20. He inherited from his father the dream to conquer the Persian Empire, the largest and most powerful empire known to that date. Alexander was a military and organizational genius – considered a god by some and a monstrous tyrant by others. He was educated by Aristotle, and was noted for his unparalleled bravery paired with irresistible charisma. Alexander’s coinage was the most extensive and uniform of the ancient world before the establishment of the Roman Empire.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eYour Alexander the Great Silver Drachm\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDenomination: Drachm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eObverse : Alexander the Great as Hercules Wearing Lion Skin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReverse: Zeus Enthroned Holding and Eagle and Scepter of Supreme Power\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoin Metal: Silver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDate: \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e325-290 BC\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBezel Metal: 14K Gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArticulating Shackle Bail Interior Diameter: Will accommodate chain or leather necklace up to 6.2 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePendant size including bezel: 3\/4 Across, 1 1\/4” Tall - Diameter of a U.S. nickel.\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"color: #990000;\"\u003eNotes from Robert:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #990000;\" color=\"#990000\"\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis is a beautiful piece in hand.
