The reverse displays the Greek god Zeus enthroned on the left, holding an eagle in his right hand and a sceptre in his left. The Greek inscription ΑΛΕΞΑΝ∆ΡΟΥ is written vertically to the right of the figure of Zeus in the genitive case, which translates as, ALEXANDROY meaning ‘[the coinage] of Alexander’.
