| Beschrijving keerzijde | Zeus Aetophoros enthroned left on a low stool-throne, his upper body nude and mantle draped over his lower limbs; his outstretched right hand supports an eagle with wings closed, while his left hand grasps a long upright sceptre. The Greek ethnic legend ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ runs along the right field, and the Macedonian regal date IZ (year 17, equating to 205/204 BC) appears in the left field as a control mark. The composition follows the canonical Alexander tetradrachm reverse type with local Pergaean die-cutting characteristics. |

Perge's civic mint issued Alexander-type tetradrachms under its own magistrates during a period when the Seleucid and Ptolemaic empires were actively contesting control of southern Anatolia. The Fifth Syrian War broke out in 202 BC, and the political atmosphere in Pamphylia in the years immediately preceding it was one of calculated hedging — cities like Perge continued striking in Alexander's name not out of sentiment but because the type commanded universal acceptance across the eastern Mediterranean trade network.
Colin's die study identifies this as a tightly dated issue, placing it within a single administrative year.
