| Reverse description | Heracles advancing right, clad in the Nemean lion skin and carrying his club over his right shoulder, in the act of plucking an apple from the sacred tree of the Hesperides. The tree, rendered with stylized branches, has a serpent coiled around its trunk, the serpent depicted with an arrow piercing its neck — a detail alluding to Heracles' slaying of Ladon. The reverse date legend L Ε appears in the field, indicating regnal year 5 of Antoninus Pius in the Alexandrian calendar. |
