History

This Ancient Greek coin represents the Alexander the Great on one side, and the Lysimachou on the other. The inscription reads : Lysimachou in Greek fonts. Alexander the Great the King of Macedonia is considered one of the most important forms of world history. Lysimachus was a Macedonian officer and diadochus of Alexander the Great, who became a basileus in 306 BC, ruling Thrace, Asia Minor and Macedon.

The Vergina Sun also known as the “Star of Vergina” is a rayed solar symbol appearing in ancient Greek art. The Vergina Sun proper has sixteen triangular rays. The name “Vergina Sun” became widely used after the archaeological excavations in and around the small town of Vergina, in northern Greece, during the late 1970s. As in all handmade items, there may be small differences in weight and dimensions and this is what makes them unique and precious.
