Reverse description Zeus Aetophoros enthroned to left on a backless throne, his body nude to the waist and draped below. In his extended right hand he holds an eagle facing outward, while his left hand rests on a long vertical scepter. The reverse legend ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ runs to the right of the figure, with the letter Α appearing as a control mark beneath the throne. The composition follows the canonical reverse type established for Alexander III's posthumous silver coinage, here attributed to the mint of Side in Pamphylia.
