| Obverse description | Diademed head of Alexander the Great facing right, distinguished by the horn of Ammon curling above his ear, an iconographic reference to his claimed divine descent from Zeus-Ammon. The portrait is rendered in the idealized Hellenistic style, with fine hair swept back beneath the diadem and softly modeled facial features characteristic of posthumous issues struck under Lysimachus. The field is plain, allowing the portrait to dominate the flan. |
