Reverse description Nike, the winged goddess of victory, stands facing left in a graceful, slightly striding posture. She holds a wreath extended in her right hand and a stylis (naval standard) in her left hand, alluding to Macedonian naval supremacy. Her wings are spread prominently behind her, with a mint control monogram positioned beneath the left wing. The bold legend ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ runs along the right field, identifying the coin as struck in the name of Alexander. The composition is rendered in the assured, flowing style typical of late fourth-century BC Macedonian coinage.
