DescriptionAlexander’s general Seleukos held on to the Macedonian conquests in Asia from Syria to Pakistan and established a dynasty that endured for a couple of centuries. The east was lost piece by piece until the reduced Seleukid holdings in Syria were taken by the Romans.“Ancient Coins” includes Greek and Roman coins and those of neighbors and successors, geographically from Morocco and Spain all the way to Afghanistan. Date ranges for these begin with the world’s earliest coins of the 8th century BC to, in an extreme case, the end of Byzantine Empire, 1453 AD.
