| Beschrijving keerzijde | Isis-Tyche depicted standing, facing, with head turned to the left, wearing the basileion (a crown consisting of a disc flanked by horns and plumes, characteristic of Isis). The goddess holds a long rudder downward in her right hand, symbolizing her role as protector of navigation and fortune, and a cornucopia in her left arm, representing abundance. The date regnal legend L ΙϚ (Year 16) appears in the field. The reverse type reflects the syncretic blending of Egyptian and Greek divine imagery central to Alexandrian coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Year 16 of Antoninus Pius's reign, which this coin's regnal date marks, fell during one of the more administratively quiet stretches of the Roman imperial period — a fact the Alexandrian mint reflected in unusually consistent output. The Egyptian regnal dating system, which reset with each emperor's accession and was tied to the Nile flood calendar, makes precise attribution of Alexandrian bronzes far more reliable than most provincial issues of comparable period.
The L ΙϚ formula — the Greek letter lambda abbreviating *etos*, "year" — is the diagnostic element that anchors this piece to 152–153 AD.
