| Reverse description | Tyche, the personification of Fortune and tutelary goddess of Alexandria, depicted reclining to the left upon a low couch or kline, wearing the kalathos (modius) on her head. Her right hand rests upon a ship's rudder, symbolising the maritime prosperity of Alexandria. The couch is rendered with horizontal mouldings and the legs are visible below. The regnal year legend L Η appears in the field. The composition is characteristic of Alexandrian civic iconography under the Antonine emperors. |
