| Beschrijving keerzijde | Zeus Aëtophoros enthroned left on a low backless throne, his body draped from the waist, holding an eagle with wings spread on his extended right hand and a long sceptre upright in his left hand. The legend ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ runs downward along the right field. An astragalos (knucklebone) appears as a control symbol in the left field, serving as a mint or magistrate identifier. The composition follows the canonical Alexandrine reverse type established at the royal mint. |

Price 1 is the opening entry in Martin Price's 1991 corpus of Alexander-type tetradrachms — a cataloguing landmark that attempted to organize thousands of dies across dozens of mints spanning Alexander's lifetime and the subsequent decades of Diadochi rivalry. The "uncertain" attribution reflects genuine scholarly disagreement; these early posthumous issues were struck by multiple competing successors who deliberately retained Alexander's types to assert continuity of authority rather than advertise their own claims.
Lifetime versus early posthumous attribution for this date range remains contested. The distinction matters considerably for valuation.
