| Reverse description | Triptolemus, clad in a chlamys and wearing an elephant-head cap, is depicted facing right and driving a biga drawn by a pair of winged serpents. The figure holds seeds gathered in the folds of his chlamys, a reference to the mythological mission of Triptolemus as the divine patron of agriculture and grain. This reverse type is characteristic of Alexandrian coinage celebrating Egyptian religious and mythological themes. The regnal year date appears in the field. |
