| Reverse description | The Canopus jar of Osiris depicted facing right, a distinctly Alexandrian religious motif representing the syncretic Egypto-Greek deity Osiris-Canopus. The vessel is shown with its characteristic rounded base, swelling body, and a human or divine head at the top surmounted by an atef crown or modius, consistent with Alexandrian numismatic conventions. The regnal date legend appears in the field. The reverse design reflects the deeply rooted Egyptian religious iconography maintained on Alexandrian provincial coinage under Roman imperial administration. |
