Reverse description Isis, wearing the basileion (a distinctive crown consisting of a solar disk flanked by cow horns surmounted by two feathers), is depicted seated to the right on a throne. Upon her knee sits the infant Harpocrates, crowned with the double crown of Egypt (skhent), holding a lotus flower and raising one hand in his characteristic gesture of childhood. The composition reflects the syncretistic religious iconography prevalent in Roman Egypt, blending Egyptian divine imagery with Hellenistic artistic conventions. The regnal year legend appears in the field.
