| Reverse description | Depiction of the Pharos of Alexandria, the celebrated lighthouse of antiquity, shown as a multi-tiered tower rising from a base, with a small structure or beacon visible at the summit. The monument is rendered frontally in a schematic but recognizable manner typical of Alexandrian civic coinage. The regnal year legend appears in the field. The reverse field is broad and relatively plain, focusing attention on the architectural motif as a symbol of Alexandrian civic pride. |
