Coin of the Month

A countermarked bronze coin of Lysimacheia

The coin presented here belongs to the largest bronze denomination ever minted in Lysimacheia. These coins enjoyed more scholarly attention than any other variety of local civic bronzes. While previous research focused primarily on the identity of the portraits depicted on their obverses, this time I would like to highlight rather a secondary feature—a countermark that helps situate the issue within the civic coinage of Lysimacheia.
