| Reverse description | Zeus Aëtophoros enthroned left on a backless throne, his body shown in three-quarter view; he holds a long scepter upright in his raised left hand and extends his right hand forward bearing an eagle with closed wings. The legend AΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ runs in two lines framing the field, with the control mark M in the left field and the secondary control ΛΥ inscribed beneath the throne. The composition is characteristic of the canonical Alexandrine reverse type as struck at the Babylon mint during the early Diadoch period. |
