| Reverse description | A large eagle stands facing with wings dramatically spread, its head turned to the left; in its talon it grasps a bucranium (ox skull), a device closely associated with the colonial coinage of Alexandria Troas. The legend COL AVGO TRO is disposed around the field, identifying the issuing colony. The composition and iconography follow a well-established type for this mint during the mid-third century. |
