Aanvullende informatie

Lysimachus seized Pergamum from his former subordinate Philetaerus around 302 BC, garrisoning it as a treasury stronghold — a decision that would ultimately backfire. When Lysimachus was killed at the Battle of Corupedium in 281 BC, Philetaerus held the treasury and used its contents to found what became the Attalid dynasty. These tetradrachms, struck at Pergamum in the king's final years, were produced within the institution that would outlast him by over a century.
