| Reverse description | An eagle stands facing right with head turned back to the left, holding a wreath in its beak and a bucranium (ox skull) clasped in its talons. The eagle, a prominent emblem of the Roman colonial coinage of Alexandria Troas, is rendered in the bold, somewhat schematic style characteristic of this provincial mint. The reverse legend is distributed across the field around the central type. |
