| Reverse description | An eagle standing left with wings spread, perched atop a thunderbolt rendered horizontally across the lower field. The royal legend ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ ΠΕΡΣΕΩΣ is disposed in two lines flanking the eagle, abbreviated in the field as Β-Α to the upper left and Π-Ε to the right. The composition follows the established Macedonian royal bronze type and is executed in a bold, if somewhat provincial, Hellenistic engraving style. |
