| 表面の説明 | Diademed and heroically coiffed head of the deified Alexander III (the Great) facing right, his flowing locks rendered in fine relief with characteristic spiraling curls. A small ram's horn of Ammon curls above the right ear, signifying his divine status as son of Zeus-Ammon. The portrait is executed in the florid Hellenistic style, with a diadem binding the hair above the forehead. The field is plain, with no surrounding legend on the obverse. The high-relief modeling of the facial features and hair reflects the accomplished die-engraving tradition of Byzantion's late Hellenistic period. |

By the mid-second century BC, Lysimachus had been dead for over a century, yet his image remained commercially potent across the Aegean. Byzantion was one of several cities that continued — or revived — his coinage long after his death at Corupedium in 281 BC, exploiting the trust his types commanded in Black Sea trade circuits. These posthumous civic issues functioned essentially as trade currency, their authority resting on a dead king's reputation rather than any living political power.
Marinescu's catalog distinguishes Byzantion's output within this tradition by magistrate names and control marks, placing this piece firmly within a locally administered series rather than a royal mint continuation.
