Tekin has recently reattributed the coins of 'Agathokleia' to Agathokles, the oldest son of Lysimachos, who was his father's right-hand man in the late 290s and 280s BC. Unfortunately for him, Lysimachos' second wife, Arsinoe, plotted against him and he was executed in 283/2 BC on charges of conspiracy against the old king. Agathokles' wife, Lysandra, a daughter of Ptolemy I, escaped the trial and fled to Seleukos, who marched against Lysimachos and killed him in the Battle of Korupedion in 281 BC - the decisive battle between the last of Alexander's surviving generals.
