| Beschrijving keerzijde | Zeus Aëtophoros enthroned left on a backless throne, his nude torso draped from the waist, holding a long sceptre in his raised left hand while his outstretched right hand supports an eagle with closed wings. A club symbol appears upright in the left field. The Greek legend ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ runs downward along the right field, identifying the coin as struck in the name of Alexander. The composition follows the standard reverse type established at the Pella mint for the Alexandrine tetradrachm series. |

Price 243 places this issue firmly at Pella during the peak of Alexander's eastern campaigns and the chaotic succession period immediately following his death in 323 BC. The Pella mint was among the most prolific of the Macedonian royal mints, and output during this window served primarily to pay the army — vast quantities of silver moving directly from captured Persian treasuries into soldiers' hands with minimal delay. Many of these coins never touched civilian commerce at all.
The dating overlap with the early Diadochi period means some pieces in this Price grouping may have been struck under Antipater's regency rather than Alexander himself.
