| Reverse description | A frontal Egyptian pylon temple depicted in schematic relief, its massive gateway flanked by two tapering pylons enclosing the sacred precinct. Within the gateway stand two canopic jars, the distinctive Egyptian funerary vessels with rounded bodies and stopper-heads, rendered facing the viewer. The composition is emblematic of Alexandrian religious iconography and reflects the syncretistic character of provincial coinage under Roman rule. The regnal date legend appears in the lower exergual area of the field. |
