| Reverse description | Isis, wearing the basileion (a crown surmounted by cow horns, sun disk, and plumes), seated left on a throne, nursing or cradling the infant Harpocrates on her knee. Harpocrates is crowned with the skhent (double crown of Egypt) and holds a lotus flower in one hand while raising the other in the characteristic gesture of childhood or divine greeting. A palm branch rises behind the seated figure, a symbol of victory and eternity in Egyptian iconography. The date regnal year 5 appears in the field as the reverse legend. |
