| Reverse description | An eagle depicted in flight, wings spread, moving to the left, grasping a bucranium (ox skull) firmly within its talons. The composition is a distinctive civic type associated with Alexandria Troas, symbolising the colony's religious and civic identity. The colonial legend is distributed around the reverse field within a dotted border. The die work is bold but shows the irregular flan characteristic of provincial bronze coinage of this period. |
