| Obverse lettering | ΑΥΤ ΚΑΙΣΑΡ ΔΟΜΙΤΙΑΝΟΣ ΣΕΒ ΓΕΡΜ (Translation: Emperor Caesar Domitian Augustus Germanicus) |
| Reverse description | The sacred Apis bull stands in profile facing right, depicted with characteristic musculature and deliberate stride upon a ground line. An altar is positioned before the bull to the right, a standard iconographic pairing in Alexandrian religious coinage referencing the venerated Memphite cult. The regnal date legend appears in the upper field. The design reflects the syncretistic Egypto-Roman religious imagery emblematic of Alexandrian provincial coinage of the Flavian period. |
