| Beschrijving voorzijde | Forepart of a lion facing left in archaic style, rendered with bold, schematic musculature; the head is shown in three-quarter view with an open mouth and a pronounced mane indicated by parallel wavy striations along the neck and shoulder. A beaded border runs along the upper edge of the flan, and a row of pellets frames the left side of the design. The composition conveys the powerful Archaic Greek artistic convention characteristic of Rhodian island mints of the late sixth to early fifth century BC, with no legend present. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Lindos was one of three major poleis on Rhodes before the synoikismos of 408 BC unified them under the new city of Rhodes, after which independent civic coinage from Lindos effectively ceased. This stater belongs to the pre-unification issues when Lindos held commercial influence across the eastern Aegean, likely connected to its sanctuary of Athena Lindia, one of the wealthiest cult centers in the region. The sanctuary's records — the Lindian Chronicle, inscribed circa 99 BC — document dedications stretching back centuries, reflecting the city's long prominence.
The weight standard follows the Rhodian-Chian norm, placing these coins firmly in Aegean trade networks rather than the Attic system dominant further west.
