| Reverse description | Zeus Aëtophoros enthroned left on a throne with a high back, his body shown in three-quarter view with muscular torso nude to the waist and legs draped. He extends his right hand forward bearing a small eagle with wings closed perched upon it, and holds a long upright sceptre in his left hand. The Greek legend ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ runs downward along the right field. The overall composition follows the standard Alexandrine reverse type as struck posthumously by successor mints. |
