| Reverse description | A distyle temple with two tall papyriform columns supporting a rounded pediment encloses a seated figure of the goddess Isis facing right, accompanied by the infant Harpocrates. A palm branch stands prominently in the field before the temple facade. The date regnal legend L Ζ (Year 7) appears in the field, situating the coin firmly within the seventh year of Antoninus Pius's reign as counted by the Alexandrian calendar. The design reflects the city's deep veneration of the Isis cult and the syncretic religious imagery characteristic of Roman Alexandrian coinage. |
