| Beschrijving voorzijde | Youthful heroized head of Herakles facing right, wearing the Nemean lion scalp headdress tied beneath the chin, with the mane rendered in flowing curls framing the face and neck. The portrait is executed in the refined Hellenistic style characteristic of the post-Alexandrine coinages, with softly modeled facial features, a prominent nose, and slightly parted lips. The lion's mouth is open above the forehead, and the paws are knotted at the throat. No legend appears on the obverse field. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Zeus Aëtophoros enthroned left on a throne with a high back, his torso nude and his lower body draped, his feet resting on a low footstool. In his extended right hand he holds an eagle facing right, and in his left hand he holds a tall sceptre. The vertical Greek legend ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ runs downward along the right field. In the left field a kantharos (wine cup) is visible as a control symbol, and the mint monogram ΜΥ appears beneath the throne, identifying the Myrina mint. The composition follows the canonical Alexandrine reverse type established during the king's lifetime. |
