| 背面描述 | Eagle with closed wings standing left atop a thunderbolt, head turned to the left, rendered in the characteristic Ptolemaic numismatic style. A Macedonian club appears in the left field, serving as a dynastic symbol. The royal legend is disposed in two lines around the reverse field. The composition is bold and well-centred, typical of the bronze coinage struck under Ptolemy III Euergetes. |

Ptolemy III Euergetes inherited a kingdom already dominant in the eastern Mediterranean and promptly made it larger, launching the Third Syrian War in 246 BC and driving deep into Seleucid territory — by some ancient accounts reaching as far as Babylon and Bactria before domestic unrest in Egypt forced his withdrawal. The bronze coinage of his reign was issued on the Ptolemaic reduced standard established under his predecessors, part of a deliberate policy of monetary isolation that kept foreign coins from circulating freely within Egypt.
Lorber 1.2#467 places this piece within a tightly sequenced die study, and the Svoronos classification remains the standard reference point despite its age.
