| Reverse description | Zeus standing facing, head turned to left, holding a patera in his extended right hand and a long sceptre in his left hand. An eagle stands at his feet, a common attribute reinforcing the deity's identification. The figure is rendered in a frontal hieratic pose characteristic of Alexandrian civic bronze coinage. The date legend L ΚΒ (regnal year 22) appears in the field. The reverse design reflects the syncretism of Greek and Egyptian religious iconography prevalent in Alexandrian numismatic art. |
