For Alexander III (the Great), who claimed descent from the line of Herakles, coins like this one projected power. Thus, while their attributes (lion-skin, eagle, scepter) identify hero and god, the inscription \u0391\u039b\u0395\u039e\u0391\u039d\u0394\u03a1\u039f\u03a5 (of Alexander) identifies the leader.",
