| Reverse description | Zodiac type featuring the Sun in Leo: a radiate and draped bust of Helios faces left in the upper field, symbolising the solar deity. Beneath, a lion strides left, representing the zodiacal sign of Leo. A star appears in the field before the lion, completing the celestial composition. The reverse field is otherwise plain, with the regnal year inscription placed prominently. The design reflects the Alexandrian mint's characteristic blending of Egyptian, Greek, and Roman iconographic traditions. |
