| Reverse description | Zeus Aëtophoros enthroned left on a low stool-throne, his upper body nude and draped across the lap, holding an eagle on his outstretched right hand and a long sceptre in his left. The legend BAΣIΛEΩΣ AΛEΞANΔΡOΥ runs in two lines flanking the seated figure. A ME monogram appears in the inner left field as the civic mint control mark of Mesembria, and a Corinthian helmet is placed as a secondary control symbol beneath the throne. |
