This serrate bronze coin comes from the Seleucid Kingdom and was issued under Antiochos VI Dionysos between 144 and 142 BC. The Seleucid Empire, a successor state of Alexander the Great's empire, covered much of the Near East. Serrate coins have a distinctive saw-toothed edge, a rare feature meant possibly as an anti-counterfeiting measure. Antiochos VI’s reign was brief and overlapped with internal dynastic struggles. Coins from this period offer valuable insights into the political instability and artistic traditions of the Hellenistic kingdoms.
