| Reverse description | Draped bust of Poseidon facing right, with a trident resting over his left shoulder, the god depicted with flowing hair and beard in the Hellenistic tradition. A dolphin appears before the bust, serving as a secondary attribute reinforcing the deity's dominion over the sea. The regnal date legend appears in the field. The composition is characteristic of the Alexandrian mint's practiced use of marine iconography under the Antonine dynasty, reflecting the city's strong relationship with maritime commerce and Egyptian religious syncretism. |
