Reverse description Tyche standing facing with head turned to the left, holding a ship's rudder in her right hand and a cornucopia in her left, symbolising fortune and abundance. To her right stands a second deity, identified tentatively as Sarapis, facing left, raising his right hand in a gesture of salutation or benediction and holding a long sceptre in his left. The composition reflects the syncretic religious iconography prevalent in eastern provincial coinage of the third century AD, combining civic and Hellenistic divine imagery within the field.
