| Reverse description | Alexander the Great (?) on horseback advancing left, wearing a chlamys and raising his right hand in a saluting gesture. Before him stands the cult statue of Apollo Smintheus, depicted facing right in a formal, upright posture. The composition reflects the close civic and religious identity of Alexandria Troas with both its legendary founder and its principal tutelary deity. The reverse legend is distributed around the field identifying the issuing colony. |
