| Reverse description | A tetrastyle or distyle temple façade shown in frontal elevation, its architrave decorated with a garland, framing a standing figure of Tyche within the intercolumniation. Tyche is depicted wearing a kalathos (modius) on her head, holding a ship's rudder in her right hand and a cornucopia in her left, symbolising the fortune and abundance of Alexandria. The date regnal formula appears in the field. The reverse type reflects the strong civic religious iconography characteristic of Alexandrian provincial coinage under the Antonine dynasty. |
