| Reverse description | Draped bust of Hermanubis — the syncretic Greco-Egyptian deity combining Hermes and Anubis — facing right, wearing the kalathos (a tall cylindrical ceremonial headdress) adorned with a lotus blossom. Before the bust, a caduceus entwined with a palm-branch serves as an attribute symbol referencing the deity's dual Hellenic and Egyptian identity. The date regnal legend appears in the field. The reverse exemplifies the rich religious iconography of Alexandrian provincial coinage under the Antonine dynasty. |
