| Reverse description | Draped bust of Sarapis facing right, the syncretic Graeco-Egyptian deity depicted wearing the characteristic kalathos (modius) atop his head, a hallmark of his iconography in Alexandrian coinage. The bust is rendered in typical provincial style. The regnal year date L Δ (Year 4) appears in the field, serving as the primary dating mechanism for this issue. The flan is irregular, consistent with hand-struck provincial bronze coinage of the period. |
