Abstract A phenomenological theory of phase coexistence of finite systems near the coexistence curve that occurs in the thermodynamic limit is formulated for the generic case of d-dimensional ferromagnetic Ising lattices of linear dimension L with magnetization m slightly less than mcoex. It is argued that in the limit L→∞ an unconventional first-order transition occurs at a characteristic value mt
