| Reverse description | Zeus Aëtophoros enthroned left, his body draped, holding an eagle on his outstretched right hand and a long scepter in his left. The eagle perches with wings partially spread atop Zeus's hand. The field to the left bears the ethnic inscription of the issuing city Odessos and the magistrate name HPAKΛEOY in two lines, while the main royal legend runs vertically to the right. Control marks appear in the left field. The design closely follows the standard posthumous Alexandrine reverse type, adapted by the autonomous mint of Odessos. |
