Description [Image] [Image] Seleukid Kings of Syria, Alexander I Balas 148/7 BC. (Year 165) Silver Tetradrachm Obverse: Diadem bust of Alexander I Balas right, fillet border. Reverse: Zeus seated left holding Nike and sceptre. Condition: EF, Coin is better than the picture. Very good metal. This coin is light silver with gold, red and medium gray toning in the protected areas. Excellent strike with nicely engraved hair highlights. The artistic rendition of Alexander I Balas is quite well done. The reverse clearly shows the face and head detail of Zeus. There is great Nike detail. The coin has virtually full, neatly lettered inscriptions. Overall, the coin is very attractive. Valuation: Why Valuation? In CNG 57, lot 576, an EF was estimated at $750 and sold for $1050 + 10% = $1155. Lot 576 has better centering and a bit better obverse than the coin at auction. But, the coin at auction is reserved at much less than what lot 576 sold for. The coin at auction is a very presentable example of Alexander I Balas. Size: 16.56 grams, die axis=0, flan 4.0 mm thick, 31 mm in diameter. References: Sear 7030, Cf. NFA Brauer, lot 468. All coins have a 14 day return privilege, no questions asked.
