Reverse description Athena Nikephoros seated left upon a throne, clad in helmet and aegis, her left arm resting upon a large round shield decorated in relief, a long spear leaning behind her. A Nike figure stands on Athena's outstretched right hand presenting a wreath. A race torch bound with fillets appears to the outer left of the field, accompanied by a monogram to the inner left. The reverse legend ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ ΛΥΣΙΜΑΧΟΥ, meaning 'of King Lysimachos', runs along the right field in two lines, asserting royal authority in standard Hellenistic fashion.
