| Beschrijving keerzijde | Sarapis stands facing at center, clad in flowing robes and wearing the modius on his head, extending his right hand to hold a taenia. Flanking him on either side, the Dioscuri stand facing with their heads turned inward toward Sarapis, each crowned with a star, and each resting upon a spear while holding a whip. The composition is symmetrical and reflects the syncretic religious iconography characteristic of Alexandrian civic coinage. The regnal year date appears in the field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Year 8 of Antoninus Pius's reign, which this coin's regnal date L Η records, fell during one of the most administratively stable periods Roman Egypt had seen in generations. Alexandria's mint was producing heavily during these years, supplying bronze for a province that ran on a closed currency system — no foreign coinage was legal tender, and all coins entering Egypt were reminted at the border.
The IV.4#797 reference places this within Dattari-Savio's corpus, the foundational catalog for Alexandrian bronzes, where the Æ34 module for this year is documented but far from plentiful in well-provenanced collections.
