| Reverse description | A Greco-Egyptian temple façade depicted frontally between two columns, within which a standing deity — identified as Isis or a comparable Egyptianizing goddess — faces the viewer, holding a sistrum in one hand and an uncertain cult object in the other. Flanking the temple on both left and right are garlanded bases, each surmounted by a bird, likely an eagle or ibis, consistent with the syncretic religious iconography of Roman Alexandria. The regnal date legend L ΙΓ (Year 13) appears in the field, anchoring the issue to Trajan's thirteenth Egyptian regnal year (109–110 AD). The composition reflects the distinctive blend of Roman and Egyptian religious traditions characteristic of Alexandrian civic coinage. |
