Jugate heads of Zeus and Hera right.
ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ // ΜΟΣΤΙΔΟΣ above and below eagle left (?) on thunderbolt.
This is probably the same as SNG BMC 311, but the reverse has been double struck in such a way that the eagle has been obscured. There are traces of possible legs above the thunderbolt. It is unusual though that all the other details, including the monogram, are sharp. [CNG]
