| Reverse description | Zeus Aëtophoros enthroned left on a high-backed throne, his upper body nude and draped from the waist down, extending his right arm forward to present an eagle perched facing left. In his left hand he holds a long sceptre angled upward to the right. The legend ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ runs vertically along the right field, with the control letter Δ (delta) in the lower left field. An additional control symbol, possibly an anchor or similar device, is faintly discernible in the lower right field. The composition follows the standard posthumous Alexander type closely associated with Pamphylian mint issues of the late 3rd century BC. |
