Description
The Lysimachus Tetradrachm is a silver coin minted by Lysimachus, one of Alexander the Great’s successors and later king of Thrace, between the end of the 4th century BC and the beginning of the 3rd century BC. This coin is particularly notable for portraying Alexander the Great in a deified form.
Description of the Coin:
•Obverse:
It features the head of Alexander the Great facing right, adorned with a diadem and the horns of Ammon, symbolizing his deification and association with the Egyptian god Ammon-Ra.
•Reverse:
It depicts Athena seated on a throne facing left, holding a Nike (personification of victory) in her right hand and resting her left elbow on a shield. A spear is positioned behind her. The Greek inscription “ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ ΛΥΣΙΜΑΧΟΥ” (Basileōs Lysimachou) means “of King Lysimachus.” Additional symbols, such as a club or a gorytos (Scythian quiver), are often present in the field of the coin.
