Kamnaskires Pillar of the Community United States 7066 Posts	Posted 09/09/2022 6:44 pm ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ ΛYΣIMAXOY = King Lysimachos. Although there were lots of contemporary imitations of the Athena seated types of tets of this king (including some of poor style), the style here is sooooo bad, I think it's probably a modern fake.
