| Reverse description | Zeus Aetophoros enthroned left on a low stool-throne, his upper body nude and draped about the hips, holding an eagle perched on his outstretched right hand and a long sceptre upright in his left. The Greek legend ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ runs to the right of the enthroned figure. A lyre appears as a control symbol in the left field, and the letter A is placed below the throne as a secondary control mark. The composition follows the canonical Alexander coinage reverse type established at the royal Macedonian mints. |
