| Reverse description | Athena Nikephoros seated left on a throne, wearing helmet and aegis, holding a small Nike in her extended right hand who crowns the royal name; her left arm rests upon a large round shield decorated with a lion's head boss. A transverse spear leans behind her. In the inner left field, a bee symbol appears above a grain ear, serving as a mint control mark for Sestos. The Greek legend ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ above and ΛΥΣΙΜΑΧΟΥ below identifies the issuing authority as King Lysimachus. |
