| Reverse description | Nike, the goddess of victory, standing to the left in flowing drapery, holding a wreath in her outstretched right hand and a stylis (ship's stern ornament) in her left hand, alluding to naval dominion. The ethnic legend ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ appears to the right of the figure in two lines, identifying the coin as issued in the name of Alexander. A bee symbol is placed in the left field, serving as a mint control mark. The composition is well-balanced within the broadly circular flan, with the figure rendered in the graceful Hellenistic style typical of the Pella mint issues. |
