Greek WorldAncient GreeceKINGS of MACEDON KINGS of THRACE, MacedonianKing Lysimachos 305-281 BCSilver AR Drachm (18 mm, 4.59 g, 12h)Lampsakos mint. Struck circa 297-281 BC. Diademed head of the deified Alexander right, with horn of Ammon / Athena Nikephoros seated left, spear behind; torch to inner left, star on throne. CNG 75, lot 118 = Freeman & Sear 13, lot 702 (same dies); Agora Auctions 5, lot 7 (same dies); otherwise unpublished in the standard references. Condition: VF, toned. Very rare.The most likely mint for this issue is Alexandria Troas, whose early issues under Lysimachos had a similar star under the throne with a secondary control mark in the inner left field. Although drachms are unknown for all of these issues, the style here is more similar to the tetradrachms. Other, though unlikely, mints are Lampsakos and Parion. Lampsakos has drachm issues with a similar star on the throne, but this is the secondary symbol, always occurring with a torch, the primary control, in the inner left field. The thyrsos was a primary control for a number of issues at Parion, but it always is in the outer left field. ********* POSTAGE & PACKING IS $8.80 TO ANY DESTINATION WORLDWIDE WITH REGISTERED INTERNATIONAL POSTAGE SERVICE IN BUBBLE ENVELOPES.* DELIVERY TIME IN JUST 10 TO 15 BUSINESS DAYS ONLY! * I ACCEPT ANY ITEM BACK IF BUYER IS NOT SATISFIED AND FOR ANY REASON WITH FULL REFUND. * PLEASE CONTACT ME IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS AND I WILL BE HAPPY TO REPLY.Greek, Greece, Ptolemy, Ptolemies, Egypt, Judean, Biblical, Jewish, Ancient, Modern, Byzantine, Roman, Imperial, Provincial, Medieval, Crusader, Classical, Archaic, Ottoman Empire, Gold, Silver, Bronze, Copper, Aluminium, Nickel, Coin, Coins, Electrum cup, German, Deutschland, France, Frankish, French, Italy, Italia, Spain, USA,UK, English, Australia, Ancient, Greek, Greece, Judean, Biblical, Jewish, Ancient, Modern, Byzantine, Roman, Imperial, Provincial, Medieval, Crusader, Classical, Archaic, Ottoman Empire, Gold, Silver, Bronze, Copper, Aluminium, Nickel, Coin, Coins, Electrum cup, German, Deutschland, France, Frankish, French, Italy, Italia, Spain, USA,UK, English, Australia, 2rooks, Knight33r, sale, Art, Artist, Picasso, Votsis, Mitaras, Gaitis, Mytaras, Replica, Hercules, Herakles, Authentic, Zeus, Hera, Hermes, Apollo, Poseidon, Percy Jackson, Jesus Christ, God
