| Reverse description | A tetrastyle or distyle temple facade depicted in perspective, with two prominent columns framing a cult statue of the river god Nilus seated upon rocky ground and turned to the left. The deity holds a cornucopia in one arm and a reed in the other, emblematic attributes of the Nile's annual inundation and agricultural abundance. The regnal year date legend appears in the field. The composition reflects the Alexandrian mint's characteristic use of local religious and topographical iconography. |
