Reverse description The reverse depicts a dramatic battle scene commemorating Alexander the Great's victory at the Battle of Arbela (331 BC). To the right, a standing full-length figure of Alexander is shown in classical military attire, holding a spear; to the left, a relief-style vignette portrays the chaos of mounted and foot soldiers in close combat. A wreath frames the central composition, with the legend THE BATTLE OF ARBELA arcing across the upper field. In the lower portion, a portrait medallion of Alexander appears at left alongside the inscriptions 331 B.C. and ALEXANDER, with the denomination 1 CROWN and the Pobjoy Mint mark PM at the base.
