| Obverse description | Laureate head of the emperor Domitian facing right, rendered in the provincial style characteristic of the Alexandrian mint. The effigy displays the emperor's characteristic features with a laurel wreath crowning his head. A Greek imperial titulature legend surrounds the portrait in the field, reading partially around the periphery. |

| Reverse description | The Canopus of Osiris depicted in right-facing orientation, represented as a vessel or jar with a human head, tapering body, and a stepped or flared base, a distinctly Egyptian religious motif commonly featured on Alexandrian provincial coinage. The date legend L Ι (regnal year 10) appears in the field to the right of the figure. The reverse reflects the syncretic Greco-Egyptian iconographic tradition of the Alexandrian mint under the Flavian dynasty. |
