| Reverse description | A bundle of six ears of grain (wheat), tied together at the stems and splaying outward at the heads, centrally positioned in the field — a motif emblematic of Egypt's agricultural fertility and its role as the primary grain supplier of the Roman Empire. The Greek legend ΣΕΒΑΣΤΟΣ (Augustus) is inscribed in the field, serving as the sole reverse inscription. The type is characteristic of Alexandrian provincial bronze coinage struck under the early Julio-Claudian administration. |
