| Reverse description | Nike, the winged goddess of victory, stands facing left in a three-quarter pose. She extends her right hand forward to present a wreath, while her left arm carries a stylis (ship's steering oar) resting over her shoulder, an allusion to naval victory. A buckle or aplustre symbol appears in the left field, and a monogram is placed beneath her left wing, serving as a mint control mark characteristic of the Lampsakos issue. The Greek legend ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ runs vertically or along the right field, identifying the coinage as struck in the name of Alexander. |
