背面描述	Homonoia, goddess of concord and harmony, depicted standing facing with head turned to the left. She holds a double cornucopia in her left arm, symbolizing abundance, while her right hand is raised in a gesture of salutation or offering. The regnal year legend L Δ (Year 4) appears in the field, dating the coin to the fourth year of Elagabalus's reign in the Alexandrian calendar. The reverse typology is characteristic of Alexandrian civic coinage under the Severan dynasty.

附加信息	This piece dates to regnal year four of Elagabalus, struck at the Alexandria mint during one of the more administratively chaotic reigns of the third century. The emperor was fourteen when he took power and spent much of his brief rule in Rome embroiled in religious controversy — his insistence on elevating the Syrian sun-cult of Elagabal above Jupiter alienated the Roman senatorial class fatally. Provincial mints like Alexandria continued their annual dating sequences regardless, producing bronze coinage for local circulation largely indifferent to the theological storms at the center.
