| Reverse description | Nike, the winged goddess of Victory, standing left in a three-quarter pose, extending a wreath in her right hand and holding a stylis (naval standard) in her left. Her flowing drapery and spread wings with finely engraved feathers exemplify the accomplished die-work of Alexander's gold coinage. A griffin head facing left appears in the left field as a mint control symbol identifying the Sardis issue. The legend ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ is inscribed in the field, denoting the royal authority of Alexander III. |
