| Reverse description | Isis Pharia depicted advancing to the right, her head turned right, holding a sistrum in her raised right hand and a billowing sail in her left hand, with a possible situla also carried. The goddess is shown in the striding pose characteristic of this type on Alexandrian coinage, evoking the maritime patronage of Isis as protector of seafarers in the harbor of Alexandria. The regnal year legend L ΙΔ (year 14) appears in the field. The reverse type is a well-known emblem of Hadrianic Alexandria, referencing the Pharos lighthouse and the importance of the city's harbor. |
