| Reversbeschreibung | Athena Nikephoros seated left on a throne, wearing a crested helmet and himation draped over the lower body, her right hand outstretched to receive a small Nike who proffers a wreath. In her left hand she holds a grounded spear, and a shield decorated with a facing Gorgoneion rests against the throne at her side. The Greek legend ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ to the right and ΛΥΣΙΜΑΧΟΥ to the left reads 'of King Lysimachus,' encircling the central device. A monogram appears beneath the throne, serving as a mint or magistrate control mark characteristic of the Ephesus issue. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Lysimachus began striking coins bearing the deified image of Alexander the Great around 297 BC, a calculated political move to legitimize his rule over territories he had held since the original partition at Triparadisus in 320 BC. The Ephesus mint was among the most productive in his western Anatolian holdings, a city whose commercial infrastructure he exploited heavily to fund ongoing conflicts with Demetrius Poliorcetes and, later, Pyrrhus of Epirus.
Lysimachus was killed at the Battle of Corupedium in 281 BC, and the Ephesus mint ceased production for him shortly before that — issues from this terminal phase are notably less common than earlier Lampsacus output.
