Beschrijving keerzijde The sacred boat of Sarapis depicted in navigating posture, crewed by divine figures: Sarapis enthroned at left, wearing the kalathos, holding a long sceptre, with Cerberus seated at his feet; to the left, a veiled Demeter standing right, wearing the kalathos, holding a torch and ears of corn; to the right, Tyche standing, wearing the kalathos, holding a rudder and cornucopia. All three deities are positioned upon an oared vessel, symbolising the syncretic religious traditions of Ptolemaic and Roman Alexandria. The regnal year numeral appears in the field.

Aanvullende informatie

Year two of Antoninus Pius's reign — the regnal year denoted by the L Β — marks his first full Egyptian year following Hadrian's death in July 138. Alexandria's imperial bronze coinage operated on the Egyptian calendar rather than the Roman, meaning this piece was struck between Thoth 1 and Mesore 30 of that year. The Alexandria mint produced a distinct local series entirely separate from the Roman provincial system, answering to the prefect of Egypt rather than any senatorial authority.
