| Reverse description | A Canopus jar depicted facing left at centre, rendered as a rounded vessel with a human-headed lid surmounted by a modius or crown, resting on a base with foliate decoration. The Canopic jar, associated with the cult of Osiris and Serapis, is a distinctively Alexandrian religious motif. To the left and right of the jar appear the Greek date letters L and Ζ respectively, indicating regnal year 7. The reverse field is otherwise plain, with the device occupying the majority of the flan. |
