Reverse description Athena Nikephoros seated left upon a throne, wearing a crested helmet and aegis, her right hand extending forward to hold a winged Nike who crowns the royal legend with a wreath. Her left arm rests upon a large round shield decorated with a lion's head boss, and a spear leans against her left shoulder. In the inner left field, a kerykeion (caduceus) is placed with its handle oriented toward the inner left. A monogram appears in the outer right field as a mint control mark. The two-line Greek legend ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ ΛΥΣΙΜΑΧΟΥ — meaning 'of King Lysimachus' — flanks the enthroned figure on either side, all within a dotted border.
