| Reverse description | Nike, the winged goddess of victory, stands facing left in three-quarter view, her large spread wings prominently displayed behind her. She holds a naval standard or stylis in her right hand and a wreath in her extended left hand, attributes associated with maritime victory. Her garments fall in fine drapery folds to her feet, and she is depicted with a polos crown upon her head. The legend ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ runs vertically along the right field. The reverse type reflects the Salaminian mint's distinctive naval iconography within the broader Alexandrine coinage tradition. |
