| Beschrijving keerzijde | Zeus Aëtophoros enthroned in left profile upon a high-backed throne with turned legs, his upper body naked and his lower body draped in a himation. He extends his right arm forward, upon which a small eagle stands with wings closed, while his left hand rests on a long sceptre. In the left field, a small symbol (likely a monogram or control mark) is visible, and a second control mark appears in the lower left field. The Greek legend ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ runs downward along the right field. The type is enclosed within a dotted border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
These final Babylon issues were struck while Alexander was still alive — just barely. The 323 BC terminus corresponds to his death in the city itself, making this among the last coinage produced under his direct authority rather than in his name posthumously. Price 3628 places this within a tightly defined Babylonian emission identifiable by specific control marks, separating it from the enormous posthumous output that followed under the Diadochi and flooded the eastern Mediterranean for decades.
