| Reversbeschreibung | 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. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Ptolemy V came to the throne as a child of roughly five years old following the death of his father Ptolemy IV in 204 BC, and the regency period that followed was immediately exploited by Philip V of Macedon and Antiochus III, who entered into a pact to partition Ptolemaic overseas territories. Egypt lost Coele-Syria permanently to the Seleucids at the Battle of Panium in 200 BC — a territorial wound that never healed. The Rosetta Stone was issued in 196 BC specifically to shore up Ptolemy V's legitimacy with the Egyptian priesthood during this destabilized reign.
The Ptolemaic silver standard had already been reduced from Attic to a lighter closed-currency system under Ptolemy III, so these tetradrachms circulated exclusively within Egypt rather than in international trade.
