| Reverse description | Dynamic equestrian scene depicting Alexander the Great mounted on his rearing horse Bucephalus, rendered in high relief in the manner of a classical frieze. Alexander is shown in profile facing left, dressed in a cuirass with pteruges and a flowing cloak, brandishing a sword in his extended right hand while controlling the reins with his left. The legend 'ALEXANDER THE GREAT' arcs along the upper rim in raised Latin characters, with the denomination '$50' displayed prominently in the upper field. A decorative border of stylised rectangular elements frames the lower portion of the design, evoking an ancient Macedonian architectural motif. The mintmark 'FM' appears in the lower field. |
