This 3rd-century AD Roman provincial bronze coin (Æ25-26) from the Koinon of Macedonia (minted Beroea) celebrates Alexander the Great under Emperor Severus Alexander (AD 222–235). It features a flowing-haired head of Alexander and a reverse scene of him taming his legendary horse, Bucephalus, often linking to Neocorate (temple warden) status.
