Tetradramma postumo (forse sotto Antigono Gonata) molto raro, di zecca incerta della Macedonia (forse Pella) (Triskeles Auctions, Sale 17, lot 70, 16.09.2016).

Macedonian Kingdom. Alexander III 'the Great'. 336-323 B.C. AR tetradrachm (27 mm, 16.70 g, 1 h). Uncertain Macedonian mint, perhaps Pella, posthumously, perhaps under Antigonos II Gonatas, ca. 280-ca. 275 B.C. Head of Herakles right, wearing lion's skin headdress / [ΑΛΕ]ΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ, Zeus seated left, holding eagle and scepter; in left field, Triton facing left, blowing horn; below throne, monogram. Mathisen grp. II, 3; Price 526. Rare Triton issue. Very rare issue. Fine.

Mathisen dated the rare Triton group of Alexander tetradrachms to 279/8 B.C. at Amphipolis. For stylistic reasons, Price thought they could not be from Amphipolis and instead suggested Pella. The issue, however, was certainly struck at a mint under the control of Antigonos II Gonatas shortly before he assumed the regal title in 277/6 B.C.
