This meticulously crafted reproduction features a coin originally minted under the reign of Antigonus II Gonatas, the prominent king of Macedon (277–239 BCE). On the obverse side, it displays a distinguished depiction of Poseidon, the revered Greek deity of the sea, characterized by his flowing hair and powerful, bearded visage crowned with marine symbolism. The design symbolizes not only the god’s dominion over the oceans but also the Macedonian kingdom's strength and naval prowess, elements crucial during Antigonus's reign in the Hellenistic period.
The reverse side prominently presents the image of Apollo seated gracefully on the prow of a ship, a distinctive motif celebrating maritime power and divine protection. Apollo, god of the sun, music, and prophecy, symbolizes the cultural flourishing of Macedonia under Antigonus II Gonatas. Accompanied by ancient Greek inscriptions clearly indicating the king’s name and titles, this side emphasizes historical authenticity. As a high-quality reproduction, this piece offers collectors a valuable glimpse into ancient Greek numismatic artistry and history, making it ideal for educational purposes and enthusiasts of Hellenistic antiquities.
