If Phillip spoke in an ancient slavic tongue why didn't he put it on his coins?

Macedonian Kingdom, Philip II, 359 - 336 B.C.

Philip II expanded the size and influence of the Macedonian Kingdom, but is perhaps best known as the father of Alexander the Great. He personally selected the design of his coins.
