Reverse description The Egyptian deity Ammon seated left upon a rocky outcrop, his head adorned with the solar disk and ram's horns characteristic of his syncretic identity. In his right hand he holds a purse and in his left a sceptre, symbols of divine authority and beneficence. At his feet crouches a ram crowned with a solar disk, reinforcing the Ammoniac iconography. The regnal date legend appears in the field. The composition reflects the distinctive Alexandrian blend of Egyptian and Hellenistic religious imagery typical of the Antonine period.
