| Reverse description | A lion seated or crouching to the left in profile, depicted with considerable naturalistic detail including a raised forepaw and open jaws, conveying a sense of power characteristic of Hellenistic civic bronzes. The Greek legend ΛΥΣΙΜΑ / ΧΕΩΝ appears in two lines to the right of the lion, identifying the issuing city of Lysimacheia. The composition fills the flan with the legend flanking the central device. The style is consistent with civic bronze issues of Thrace during the 3rd century BC. |
