NGC VF, edge marks, scuffs. Diademed, draped bust of Artemis right, bow and quiver over shoulder, in the tondo of Macedonian shield / MAKEΔONΩN / ΠPΩTHΣ, club of Heracles right; ΣΗΑTΡ monogram above, TKP and MYEΩT monograms below; all within oak wreath, thunderbolt to left.

After Rome's conquest, Macedon was divided into four districts called "Merides" (singular "Meris"). This beautiful Tetradrachm was issued by the First Meris and retains the distinct Macedonian style found in the previous Monarchical coinage.
