Reverse description A Canopus jar depicted in right-facing orientation, representing the distinctive Egyptian deity in its characteristic vessel form with a rounded body, narrow neck, and fitted lid. The Canopic figure, associated with Osiris in Alexandrian religious iconography, is rendered in a simple but recognizable style typical of Hadrianic provincial bronze coinage. The regnal date legend L ΙΗ, denoting year 18 of Hadrian's reign, appears in the field. The reverse field shows typical wear and surface patination consistent with circulated provincial bronze.
