| Reverse description | Zeus Aëtophoros enthroned to the left on a stool-throne (diphros), his body draped, holding an eagle perched on his outstretched right hand and a long sceptre in his raised left hand. In the left field, a civic monogram of Rhodes appears above a rose — the emblematic badge of the issuing city — with the ethnic abbreviation ΡΟ inscribed below the throne. The full royal legend ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ runs along the right field, identifying the issue as struck in the name of Alexander III. |
