Though I said I was going to focus on Roman Republican coinage, I did say it would be a weak focus.
I finally got an Alexander lifetime tetradrachm to match my lifetime drachm. This one is darkly toned and was minted in Babylon.

Alexander III “The Great”. 336-323 BC. AR Tetradrachm, struck circa 325-323 BC.
Obverse: Head of Herakles right, wearing lion’s skin headdress.
Reverse: Zeus seated left, holding eagle in right hand, sceptre in left; grapes and M before, monogram below throne.
Price 3641b (same obverse die); Müller 692. 26mm, 16.62 g. Babylon mint.
