| Beschrijving voorzijde | Facing right, the youthful head of Heracles portrayed without beard, wearing the Nemean lion scalp as headdress, the paws knotted at the throat; the finely rendered facial features exhibit the idealized portraiture characteristic of the Alexandrine tradition, with curling hair visible beneath the lion skin. The die engraving displays high artistic quality, with strong relief and careful modelling of the cheek, ear, and neck. No legend or inscription appears on the obverse field. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Zeus Aëtophoros seated left on a low throne (diphros), his himation draped across his lap and lower body; he holds an eagle on his outstretched right hand and a long sceptre upright in his left. In the left field, a youthful male figure stands holding a taenia (fillet) over the head of Zeus, with a dove flying left above him — both serving as mint control symbols specific to the Sikyonian issue. The ethnic control letter ΘΕ appears below the throne. The retrograde legend ΑΛΕΞΑΝΔΡΟΥ runs along the right field, identifying the coin as struck in the name of Alexander the Great. |
