| Reverse description | Nike, the goddess of victory, stands facing left in three-quarter stance, rendered in graceful Hellenistic style. She extends her right hand forward holding a wreath, while her left hand grasps a stylis (a naval standard or ship's stern ornament), referencing maritime victory. In the left field, a horse leg oriented to the right serves as a mint control mark specific to the Salamis (Cyprus) issue. The Greek legend ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ appears in the right field, denoting the authority of Alexander III. The reverse composition reflects the standard Alexandrine gold stater type as catalogued under Price 3134. |
