Reverse description The god Nilus reclines in a languid pose to the left, his body supported upon a crocodile or hippopotamus, emblematic of the Nile River and its fauna. The deity holds a tall reed stalk in one hand and a overflowing cornucopia in the other, symbolising the river's annual inundation and agricultural abundance. The regnal year numeral ΙϚ (16th year) appears in the upper field, while the date legend L ΔΩΔΕΚ(Α) is inscribed in the exergual area or field.
