| Beschrijving keerzijde | Zeus Aëtophoros enthroned left on a backless stool-throne, his body draped from the waist, holding an eagle perched on his outstretched right hand and a long sceptre upright in his left hand. In the left field, the letter Β appears above a lion's head facing left, serving as a mint control symbol; below the throne, the secondary control mark Π is placed in the exergual area. The reverse legend ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ runs along the right field in Greek script. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
After Alexander's death in 323 BC, his successors continued striking coins in his name for decades — partly for economic continuity, partly for political legitimacy. Lysimachos, who controlled much of Asia Minor and Thrace, used the Kolophon mint during this window to produce Alexandrine coinage while consolidating his grip on the region. He wouldn't strike in his own name until around 297 BC, making issues like this one a transitional artifact of a power structure still pretending Alexander's empire was intact.
