| Reverse description | Draped bust of Sarapis facing left, wearing the distinctive kalathos (modius) atop his head, a symbol of the god's chthonic and solar attributes. The hair is rendered with characteristic wavy locks falling to the shoulders, and the drapery is indicated at the bust truncation. The regnal year legend L ΙΑ appears in the field, denoting the eleventh year of Trajan's reign in Egypt. The reverse is enclosed within a dotted border consistent with Alexandrian provincial bronze production of the period. |
