| Reverse description | An eagle with closed wings stands in left profile atop a thunderbolt, rendered with precise feather detailing across the body, folded wings, and elongated tail feathers. The thunderbolt beneath the eagle's talons is depicted in the standard Ptolemaic form. No control marks appear in the field, consistent with certain issues of this reign. The Greek legend ΠΤΟΛΕΜΑΙΟΥ ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ runs around the periphery — ΠΤΟΛΕΜΑΙΟΥ to the left and ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ to the right — enclosed within a beaded border. |
