| Reverse description | Draped bust of Nilus facing right, crowned with a wreath of lotus-buds and a reed at the shoulder, personifying the abundance of the Nile River. Before the bust, a large cornucopia from which a Genius emerges holding a wreath, symbolizing fertility and prosperity. The composition reflects the Alexandrian mint's characteristic iconographic program celebrating the Nile's life-giving bounty. The date regnal legend appears in the field. The style is consistent with mid-Antonine provincial bronzes from Alexandria. |
