Stater In the name of Lysimachus

正面描述	Diademed head of the deified Alexander the Great facing right, rendered in fine Hellenistic style with luxuriant, tousled curls framing the face. A prominent ram's horn of Ammon curves above the ear, denoting Alexander's divine association with Zeus-Ammon. The diadem is tied behind the head, its ends visible amid the flowing locks. The portrait displays idealized, youthful features with a strong profile, boldly struck in high relief against a plain field.

附加信息	Byzantion struck gold staters in the name of Lysimachus decades after that king's death at Corupedium in 281 BC — a common practice among cities seeking to leverage his established monetary prestige rather than introduce unfamiliar coin types into trade networks. By the mid-third century, "Lysimachoi" had become a de facto trade currency across the Black Sea region, and Byzantion, sitting astride the Bosphorus toll route, had strong commercial incentive to keep issuing them. The Marinescu corpus documents considerable die variation among Byzantion's posthumous output, suggesting sustained and substantial production over several decades.
