EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an Ancient Greek silver coin from Pella, dating back to 286-281 BC. Measuring at a modest 3x3 cm, this remarkable artifact is housed in the prestigious Ashmolean Museum at the University of Oxford in the UK. The coin bears significant historical and cultural value as it represents Lysimachus, a prominent Macedonian officer and successor of Alexander the Great. Lysimachus ruled over Thrace, Asia Minor, and eventually Macedon until his death in 281 BC. On one side of the coin, we find a beautifully engraved depiction of Athena, the revered Greek goddess known for her wisdom and strategic prowess. The reverse side features intricate designs symbolizing currency and ancient monetary systems. As we gaze upon this ancient relic, we are transported back in time to an era where coins were not just means of exchange but also reflections of power and belief systems. This numismatic treasure offers us a glimpse into the rich history of Macedonia and its connection to Greece. With its impeccable craftsmanship and historical significance, this silver coin serves as a testament to human ingenuity throughout centuries past. It stands as a reminder that even small objects can hold immense stories waiting to be discovered by those who appreciate artistry intertwined with history's tapestry.
