Reverse description Draped bust of Sarapis facing right, crowned with the distinctive kalathos (modius) and encircled by a laurel wreath, rendered in the characteristic Alexandrian provincial style. The syncretic deity is depicted with his characteristic long, flowing beard and elaborately styled hair. The date legend L ΤΕΤΑΡΤΟΥ appears in the field, recording the fourth regnal year of Antoninus Pius. The reverse composition is typical of Alexandrian bronze coinage, which frequently featured Egyptian and Greco-Egyptian deities alongside imperial portraiture.
