Description

THRACE. Kingdom of Thrace. Lysimachos, 323-281 B.C. AR Tetradrachm (16.88 gms), Lampsakos Mint, ca. 297/6-282/1 B.C. NGC EF, Strike: 4/5 Surface: 3/5. Die Shift.
HGC-3.2, 1750b; Thompson-47. Obverse: Diademed head of the deified Alexander right, with horn of Ammon; Reverse: Athena seated left on throne, holding crowning Nike and resting elbow upon shield; HP monogram to inner left, crescent in exergue. This toned and lustrous example provides wonderful detail and a clarity of strike, with just a touch of wear. The noted die shift is relatively minor and adds a touch of character to the portrait of Alexander.
Ex: Classical Numismatic Group 45 (3/1998) Lot # 281.

Estimate: $1250.00- $2500.00
