| Beschrijving keerzijde | The goddess Isis is depicted seated to the right on a throne, wearing her distinctive composite crown consisting of a solar disc flanked by cow horns and surmounted by double plumes, emblematic of her syncretic role in the Alexandrian religious tradition. Seated upon her knee is the infant Harpocrates, identifiable by his skhent (double) crown and the characteristic gesture of raising his hand to his mouth, the traditional iconographic sign of divine childhood and silence. The composition closely parallels the Isis Lactans type popular in Alexandrian coinage and reflects the deep integration of Egyptian religious iconography into the imperial provincial coinage. The regnal date appears in the field in Greek numerals. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Year 13 of Trajan's reign marked the period immediately following the First Dacian War, with the Alexandrian mint operating under the tightly controlled Egyptian provincial coinage system — entirely separate from the imperial Roman mint network. Egypt functioned as the emperor's personal fiscal domain, and its bronze coinage was deliberately restricted from export, circulating only within the province.
The regnal year system used at Alexandria, denoting LΙΓ for year 13, is one of the more reliable dating mechanisms in all provincial numismatics.
