In our next video series covering the The National Bank of Macedonia’s exhibitions of ancient and medieval coins minted in different parts of Macedonia, we present the NBM videos of Paeonian Royal and tribal coins.
Paeonia had it’s own Kingdom and sub tribes until it was completely absorbed into Macedonia proper. They minted coins both as a separate Kingdom and when absorbed into Macedonia.
The Paeonians fought on the side of Troy against the Hellenes and formed core units including elite skirmishers and cavalry in Alexander III of Macedonia’s (the Great) army.
