| Reverse description | Tyche, the personification of Fortune and patron deity of Alexandria, reclines to the left upon an ornate kline (ceremonial couch) with decoratively carved legs visible below. She wears the kalathos (modius) upon her head and is draped in flowing robes rendered with detailed folds. Her right hand rests upon a large ship's rudder, alluding to Alexandria's preeminent role as a maritime and commercial center. The regnal date legend L ΙΕ appears in the field, denoting the fifteenth year of Antoninus Pius's reign. |
