Reverse description Ammon, the ram-headed Egyptian deity syncretized with Zeus, stands facing with head turned to the left. The god holds an atef crown or patera in one hand and a long sceptre in the other, referencing his dual role as a divine and oracular figure. To the left of the central figure, a ram is depicted as an additional attribute reinforcing the deity's identity. The regnal date appears in the field, marking this issue to year 17 of Hadrian's reign. The composition reflects the Alexandrian mint's characteristic blending of Greek and Egyptian iconographic traditions.
