| Beschrijving voorzijde | Diademed head of the deified Alexander III to right, rendered in fine Hellenistic style with the ram's horn of Ammon curling behind the ear, asserting his divine lineage. The flowing locks of hair are rendered with great sculptural detail, arranged in characteristic Lysimachean portrait style. The diadem is clearly visible crossing the forehead, its ends trailing behind the head. The portrait fills the flan with confident authority, the field left plain without legend. No border of dots is visible on this specimen. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
After Lysimachus died at the Battle of Corupedium in 281 BC, his image and name continued circulating on coinage struck by cities that had once fallen under his control — a posthumous monetary franchise that persisted for decades. Byzantion was among several Thracian and Pontic cities that issued these so-called "Lysimachi" well into the third century, partly for prestige and partly because the type enjoyed wide acceptance in Black Sea trade networks. The Marinescu corpus remains the authoritative die study for this series.
