Ancient Bronze Coin of the Eastern Greek World [решено]

Anyone good at Ancient Greek coins want to take a shot at identifying this? I don't know anything more about it other than the information in the subject line. It is labeled with a very broad date of 500-30 B.C. The images are not great, but I tried to make adjustments so that the details would show a little better....

One can read "ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ" on the second picture, but this is not that useful since it just means "king". You will need to take better pictures for anyone read the rest. You may want to try to set a magnifier between the coin and your device.

I took a couple new images with a different camera and lighting. Hopefully this will help with the identification. I am not sure what is up or down, but here is a picture of each side:

Excellent! I wasn't able to read the name of the king, and even knowing he was "Alexander" wouldn't have been enough to find him among the many kings bearing this name.
