Alexander Tetradrachm-mintark?

[autographcollector11]

Can anyone tell where this coin was minted? I suspect it is a lifetime issue or early posthumous. If it was post-who was it under?

Thought I'd bump this old posting back up.
More than 120 mints are known to have issued coinage of the Alexandrine type.
Note the Seleucid anchor on the reverse side. This is just one of well more than a thousand symbol and monogram combinations that appear on coins of this series. Although the style, fabric, and other elements of these coins would change in very noticeable ways depending on both the mint and date, the Heracles-Zeus design would be struck well into the first century B.C., a remarkable lifespan for any coin type.
Something to do in my spare time; unless someone else can answer the Q.

There are two main styles in which Zeus is depicted on the reverse of the Alexander coins. In one depiction Zeus has his legs side by side and in the other style he has one leg behind the other. As a general rule, the former depictions of Zeus were minted during the lifetime of Alexander, while the latter were usually minted posthumously. However there are exceptions to this rule.
