| Reversbeschreibung | Nike, the goddess of victory, stands facing left in a graceful three-quarter pose, holding a wreath extended in her right hand and a stylis (ship's stern ornament) in her left. In the left field, a dot and a head of Silenus serve as subsidiary control marks identifying this emission. In the right field, a monogram appears within a wreath, functioning as an additional mint control symbol. The reverse legend ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ runs along the fields, invoking the authority of Alexander III despite the coin's issue under Antigonus I. The composition adheres to the canonical Alexandrine stater reverse type established across the Macedonian empire. |

Antigonus I Monophthalmus — "the One-Eyed" — controlled Babylon during this period while maneuvering against the other Diadochi in the wars that followed Alexander's death in 323 BC. Issuing coinage in Alexander's name rather than his own was a deliberate political calculation: it projected legitimacy and continuity at a moment when no single successor had yet consolidated enough power to strike in his own right without inviting immediate challenge.
Price 3736 places this issue firmly within the Babylonian sequence identifiable by specific control marks. Antigonus abandoned the pretense entirely after Ipsus became inevitable — his son Demetrius would eventually strike in his own name from the same mint.
