| Beschrijving keerzijde | Zeus, depicted in a recumbent pose, reclines upon an eagle perched atop a thunderbolt, the composition oriented to the left. The god holds a thunderbolt in his outstretched hand, reinforcing his identity as ruler of the heavens. The eagle, with wings partially spread, serves as both throne and divine symbol. The regnal year legend appears in the field to the right of the central device. The image is executed in the characteristic schematic style of Alexandrian provincial bronzes of the Trajanic period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Year 17 of Trajan's reign in Egypt corresponds to the precise moment the emperor was consolidating his Parthian campaign infrastructure — a war that would briefly push Roman territorial control to the Persian Gulf. Alexandria's mint was under pressure to produce bronze coinage in volume during this period, as military logistics in the eastern provinces depended heavily on small-denomination circulation. The L ΙΖ dating formula, unique to Alexandrian issues, reflects Egypt's status as an autonomous monetary district operating outside the standard Roman provincial framework.
