| Beschrijving keerzijde | A classical tetrastyle or distyle temple facade rendered in profile, with two prominent columns framing the standing figure of Sarapis, depicted facing with head turned to the left and holding a long sceptre. To the left of the temple stands an altar, a common votive element in Alexandrian religious iconography. The regnal date L ΙΑ, denoting the eleventh regnal year, appears in the field and serves as the primary dating element for this issue. The reverse type reflects the important civic and religious role of the Sarapieion in Alexandria. The surfaces are heavily worn with significant encrustation, partially obscuring the fine detail of the architectural and figural elements. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Year 11 of Trajan's reign at Alexandria corresponds to a period of intense administrative activity in Egypt, falling just before the Dacian Wars concluded and Trajan pivoted toward his Parthian campaign. Alexandrian bronze issues of this regnal year were struck on a particularly heavy fabric by Trajanic standards, and III#4235.3 is among the better-documented varieties in Dattari-Savio's corpus of Alexandrian bronzes — a catalog built painstakingly from private Egyptian collections dispersed in the early twentieth century.
