Hellenistic period

The Hellenistic period spans nearly three hundred years between the death of Alexander the Great of Macedonia (323 B.C.) and that of Cleopatra VII of Egypt (30 B.C.), a descendant of one of Alexander’s generals.

The term Hellenistic is derived from Hellas, an ancient Greek word for Greece. It is used to describe both chronologically and culturally the era following Alexander’s conquest of Egypt and Asia, which resulted in the spread of Greek culture across a vast area. The melding of local and Greek artistic styles with the luxurious materials captured in the conquered lands resulted in magnificent artwork, including elegant coinage.

Following Alexander’s death, his empire was divided among his generals, who established independent kingdoms in Egypt, Persia, the eastern coast of the Aegean Sea, including Syria and Palestine, Greece and Thrace.

Almost immediately the generals began to covet each other’s land and power.

Kingdom of Thrace:

Lysimachus (r. 323–281 B.C.), the general who succeeded Alexander as the ruler of Thrace, used the young ruler’s portrait on the front of this coin. However, on the back, Lysimachus named himself “king” and pictured the goddesses Athena and Nike (Victory) crowning his name with laurels, which symbolized victory or honor. He also placed his personal badge - a lion’s fore-parts - under Athena’s hand. The badge referred to Lysimachus’s famous exploit of killing a lion with his bare hands and reinforced his association with Alexander, who used the skin of the Nemean lion as one of his symbols of power and courage.
