Popis produktu: This carefully detailed modern restrike captures a celebrated coin design of the Seleucid Empire, one of the prominent Hellenistic states emerging after the conquests of Alexander the Great. The obverse prominently features a distinctive portrait of a warrior-king adorned in an impressive horned helmet, symbolizing divinity, heroism, and authority. Such iconography was characteristic of the Seleucid rulers, who frequently depicted themselves in divine or heroic fashion to legitimize their power and prestige among subjects.The reverse vividly portrays Nike, the goddess of Victory, gracefully crowning a military trophy, symbolic of triumph and martial success. Beside her stands a detailed shield bearing a radiant star?an emblem often linked to the dynastic symbols of Seleucid royalty. The Greek inscriptions clearly visible, "???????? ????????" ("of King Seleucus"), firmly anchor this coin to its historical legacy, reflecting the empire?s widespread influence across Asia Minor and the Near East. For collectors and enthusiasts of ancient numismatics, this piece serves as an exceptional representation of Seleucid art and imperial propaganda. Foto:
