Although this variety does not appear in Thompson, the fine style and similarity to published specimens of Lysimacheia certainly place this coin among the lifetime issues there. Furthermore, it is unlikely that Lysimachos' coinage continued to be struck at this city after his death, during the subsequent Seleukid and Macedonian administrations.
