| Reverse description | Nilus, the personification of the River Nile, reclines in a biga drawn by two hippopotami moving to the right, holding a reed stalk. Above the central field, the numeral ΙϚ appears, likely referencing a cubit measurement or local reckoning. In the exergue, lotus flowers are depicted, emblematic of the Nile and Egyptian iconography. The date regnal legend L ΙΓ (Year 13) appears in the field. The overall composition is a distinctively Alexandrian type celebrating the Nile's annual inundation and agricultural bounty. |
