Ancient Circa 260 B.C. Lysimachus Silver Tetradrachm of Aenus NGC AU

Only One of Four Known to Exist: Aenus-Minted Lysimachus Silver Tetradrachm!

Imagine admiring a leader so vehemently, that you'd do anything or go anywhere he'd ask. Even lay down your life in the process. That was how the followers of Alexander the Great felt. The ancient Macedonian ruler was one of the greatest military minds producing one of the largest empires the ancient world had ever seen.  Now imagine living up to his name and fame as his successor: enter Lysimachus. Lysimachus became king in 306BC and whether he did it to honor Alexander or just to flaunt a connection with such a revered leader, he was first to put a Greek king on a coin. And we have one of the only four known to man.

• EXTREMELY RARE, 1 OF 4 -- This particular example of the silver Tetradrachm of Lysimachus, is extremely rare, with only four known to exist. Market records of the past 17 years only show that one other coin was ever sold. One coin is in the ANS collection in New York and the other in the collection of notable academic Henri Sevrig.

• EXCEPTIONAL PORTRAIT OF ALEXANDER THE GREAT – This Lysimachus coin of silver shows the deified head of Alexander the Great wearing a Horn of Ammon (ram's horn), symbolic of the Greco-Egyptian composite god Zeus-Ammon, along with a diadem -- a cloth headband with ivy. This and similar renditions of Alexander on Lysimachus' coinage are widely regarded as among the most gripping portraits of Alexander on coinage. The reverse depicts a seated Athena holding a Nike crowning Lysimachus's' name, along with a legend that translates as "Of King Lysimachus".

• AENUS MINT – Minted in Aenus, Circa 260 B. C., it's a large beauty with a diameter of 31mm.

• GRADED WITH NON-DAMAGED PORTRAIT -- Graded About Uncirculated (AU) condition by NGC with a strike rating of 5/5 and a surface rating of 2/5, this coin is beautiful yet has a poor surface. So, it is considered inexpensive. The poor surface was most likely caused by being buried in soil for 2000 years.
