| Reverse description | Draped bust of the ram-headed deity Ba-neb-djedet (the sacred ram of Mendes) facing right, wearing the elaborate atef crown surmounted by a sun disk set between two uraei upon ram horns. The composite crown identifies this as the syncretic Mendesian deity, patron of the Mendesian nome. The reverse type is specific to nome coinage issued for the Mendesian nome of Lower Egypt. The regnal year date appears in the field. |
