| Obverse description | Diademed head of the deified Alexander the Great facing right, wearing the horn of Ammon curling behind his ear, his wild flowing locks rendered in high relief in the characteristic Lysimachean style. The portrait, derived from the iconic type established by Lysimachus of Thrace in the early third century BC, presents Alexander with idealised, youthful features. The flan is broad and slightly irregular, consistent with the hammered production of a provincial civic mint. No legend appears on the obverse. |
