Beschrijving voorzijde Youthful head of Herakles facing right, wearing the Nemean lion scalp headdress, the lion's mane rendered with bold, deeply cut curls framing the face. The portrait is executed in the Lysippan tradition associated with Alexander III coinage, displaying strong modelling of the facial features including a well-defined brow, prominent nose, and parted lips. The lion's paws are knotted at the neck. No inscription appears on the obverse field.

Beschrijving keerzijde 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.
