The reverse of the coin on the right depicts the sacred bird of Zeus, the Eagle of the State cluching or perched on the sacred lightning of Zeus Kataibates, "Zeus who descends in lightning" declaring: "He who rules by Zeus' permission and will".

The reverse of the coin on the right depicts the sacred bird of Zeus, the Eagle of the State cluching or perched on the sacred lightning of Zeus Kataibates, "Zeus who descends in lightning" declaring: "He who rules by Zeus' permission and will".

Meanwhile the coin reads in [[Greek]] ΠΤΟΛΕΜΑΙΟΥ ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ: "of King Ptolemy" or "of Ptolemy the King".  

Meanwhile the only title thereon reads in [[Greek]] ΠΤΟΛΕΜΑΙΟΥ ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ: "of King Ptolemy" or "of Ptolemy the King". But both ΠΤΟΛΕΜΑΙΟΥ and ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ are singular genative which necessitates the nominative being the subject of the sentence.  Since there is no text in the nominative the iconography supplies the void of the missing nominative to read a true title as: "Zeus grants kingship to Ptolemy."
