| Reverse description | A large upright anchor occupies the central field, depicted with a prominent ring at the top, two curved flukes, and a crossbar at the lower shaft, serving as the primary dynastic emblem of the Seleucid house. The Greek royal legend ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ to the left and ΣΕΛΕΥΚΟΥ to the right encircles the anchor in the field. A control symbol or monogram appears in the lower field or exergue depending on the die variety. The design is bold and schematic, consistent with the propagandistic coinage program of Seleukos I Nikator. |
