| Reverse description | Athena Nikephoros seated left on a throne, wearing helmet and military attire, extending her right arm forward to hold a small Nike who offers a wreath. Her left hand rests on a large shield decorated with a device, and a spear leans against her left shoulder. The encircling Greek legend ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ ΛΥΣΙΜΑΧΟΥ runs around the perimeter, with the mint abbreviation ΒΥ (for Byzantion) placed in the left field. A monogram appears in the central field, and a lion's head or similar symbol is visible in the exergue area, serving as a control mark for this Byzantion civic issue. |
