Reverse description Zeus Aetophoros enthroned left on a low stool-throne, his upper body nude, with a himation draped over his lower limbs. In his extended right hand he holds an eagle with open wings, and in his left hand a long vertical sceptre. In the left field appears a monogram, and below the throne a bipennis (double axe) serving as a mint control symbol. The reverse legend ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ runs along the right field, identifying the coin as struck in the name of Alexander III.
