[QUOTE="Steven Michael Gardner, post: 5588372, member: 97508"]This is one of the few Athena / Lion coins that has the bust facing left, at least that I have come across, this ref is from Lysimachos, Thrace and it's very strange as I notice everyone of the coins on this ref page at wildwinds ([URL]https://www.wildwinds.com/coins/greece/thrace/kings/lysimachos/t.html[/URL] ) Athena is always facing right (see attached)??? Is this something of a peculiar rarity with Athena facing left or not?, can some one show me a reference for this particular look?? [ATTACH=full]1241795[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]1241796[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
