| Beschrijving keerzijde | The youthful deity Horus of Mesen (Harpokrates in his martial aspect) depicted standing to the left, wearing the pschent double crown of Upper and Lower Egypt and attired in military dress. In his right hand he holds an upright spear, while his left hand grasps a parazonium (short military sword) and raises the edge of a chlamys (military cloak). The composition reflects the syncretic blending of Egyptian and Greco-Roman iconographic traditions prevalent in Alexandrian nome coinage, with the nome ethnic and regnal year appearing in the field or legend. |

The ΛΙΓ regnal date places this piece in Trajan's 13th year, 109/110 AD, a moment when Alexandria's mint was operating under the administrative framework of Roman Egypt — a province so economically sensitive that Augustus had barred senators from entering it without imperial permission. The Alexandrian bronze series ran on a parallel dating system tied to the emperor's reign rather than the Roman consular calendar, a deliberate administrative separation that persisted through the entire imperial period.
ϹΕΘΡΩΙΤΗϹ identifies the nome of Sethroites in the Delta region, one of several nome types introduced into the Alexandrian series under Trajan.
