| Reverse description | A crab depicted in full frontal view occupies the central field, rendered with careful anatomical detail showing the carapace, claws, and legs symmetrically disposed. Radiating lines extend outward from behind the crab, suggesting solar or decorative motifs. The Greek inscription ΑΛ appears above divided on either side of the crab, and ΕΞ appears below, together forming the abbreviated name ΑΛΕΞ — a reference to Alexander I of Epirus (Alexander Molossus) — arranged around the central type in the fields. |
