| Beschrijving voorzijde | Youthful head of Herakles facing right, wearing the scalp of the Nemean lion as a headdress, with the lion's mane rendered in deeply articulated folds framing the face and neck. The facial features display the idealised portraiture characteristic of the early Pella coinage, with a prominent brow, well-defined nose, and parted lips. A beaded border surrounds the design, partially visible along the coin's irregular flan edge. The rendering exhibits the vigorous, high-relief die-cutting style associated with the royal Macedonian mint at Pella during the reign of Alexander III. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Zeus Aëtophoros enthroned left on a high-backed throne, his upper body nude and his lower body draped, extending his right hand to present a small eagle perched with wings closed, while his left hand rests upon a tall sceptre. A bee symbol appears in the left field, and what appears to be a control symbol is placed to the right of the sceptre. The Greek legend ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ runs along the right field. The composition follows the canonical reverse type established for Alexander III tetradrachms, executed with bold, confident engraving characteristic of the Pella mint. |
