| Reverse description | Zeus Aëtophoros enthroned left on a low backless throne, his torso nude and draped from the waist, holding an eagle with wings closed on his extended right hand and a long sceptre upright in his left; an athlete or figure leaping left appears as a control symbol in the left field. The royal legend ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ runs along the right field, identifying the coin as issued in the name of Alexander. The composition reflects the canonical reverse type established under Alexander III and perpetuated by his successors. |
