Beschrijving voorzijde Lion's head facing three-quarters to the right, rendered in high relief with boldly modelled mane radiating from the face. The muscular facial features, including pronounced brow, open jaws, and globular eye, are characteristic of the Hellenistic civic bronze coinage of Thrace. The surrounding field is plain, with no legend or border.

Aanvullende informatie

Lysimacheia was founded by Lysimachus around 309 BC as the administrative capital of his Thracian territories, situated on the narrow neck of the Thracian Chersonese. The city's independent bronze coinage dates to the decades following his death at Corupedium in 281 BC, when the city briefly maintained autonomy before its destruction by invading Gauls in 279 BC and subsequent refoundation. This piece falls within the post-refoundation civic issues, struck before Antiochus I absorbed the region into Seleucid influence around 265 BC.
