| Reverse description | The god Sarapis reclines to the left upon a garlanded ceremonial couch, his body turned in three-quarter view. In his outstretched right hand he holds an eagle, while his left hand grasps a long transverse sceptre extending across the field. The composition reflects the strong Egypto-Greek religious influence present in Sinopean civic iconography. The encircling legend records the colony name and the regnal year expressed in the local Sinopean era, with ANN CCLV indicating the 255th year of the colony's foundation era. |
