| Reverse description | Standing figure of an eagle facing left, with wings spread and head turned to the right, rendered in the characteristic Alexandrian provincial style. The eagle stands on a thunderbolt or similar base, serving as the emblematic reverse type of the Alexandrian tetradrachm series. To the left appears the regnal date letter L (indicating 'year' in Egyptian dating convention), and to the right the numeral Γ (3), together denoting regnal year 3 of Gordian III. A dotted border frames the design within the coin's irregular flan. |
