THRACE. Kingdom of Thrace. Lysimachos, 323-281 B.C. AR Tetradrachm (17.04 gms), Uncertain mint. NGC Ch EF, Strike: 5/5 Surface: 4/5.
cf. HGC-3.2, 1750 (for overall type); Thompson-Unlisted; Muller-Unlisted; Meydancikkale-2723. 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; monogram to inner left; ΔΩ on throne. Very well centered and struck, this pleasantly toned example is rather SCARCE and emanates from an uncertain mint. Great, elegant style and eye-catching appeal, with some brilliance remaining in the protected areas.
Estimate: $1000 - $2000
