| Reverse description | Zeus Aëtophoros enthroned left upon a low backless throne, his body draped from the waist, his right arm outstretched supporting an eagle with closed wings, and his left hand grasping a tall sceptre. A trident symbol appears in the left field, serving as a mint control mark. The ethnic legend ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ runs along the right field, identifying the coin as issued in the name of Alexander. The composition is bold and well-centred, with the deity rendered in the grand Olympian tradition characteristic of Alexander-type coinage from the Pella mint. |
