"Karsten Dahmen collects, presents and examines, for the first time in one volume, the portraits and representations of Alexander the Great on ancient coins of the Greek and Roman periods (c. 320 BC to AD 400). Dahmen offers a firsthand insight into the posthumous appreciation of Alexander's legend by Hellenistic kings, Greek cities, and Roman emperors combining an introduction to the historical background and basic information on the coins with a comprehensive study of Alexander's numismatic iconography."--Jacket
