| Reverse description | Tyche, personification of Fortune and tutelary goddess of Alexandria, depicted reclining to the left upon an ornate couch or kline. She wears the kalathos (modius basket) on her head, symbolizing abundance and civic prosperity, and rests her hand upon a large rudder, an attribute emblematic of Alexandria's maritime significance and her role as guardian of navigation. The regnal year legend appears in the upper field above the figure. |
