Reverse description Sarapis enthroned, seated to the left, holding a long sceptre in his left hand, wearing his characteristic modius (kalathos) crown. The three-headed dog Cerberus crouches at his feet to the left, acting as guardian of the underworld. A small figure, identified as Nike or possibly an eagle, appears on the throne behind the deity, adding a further divine dimension to the composition. The reverse field is plain, with the regnal year legend placed prominently in the field. The type reflects the deep integration of Egyptian religious iconography into Alexandrian imperial coinage.
