| Reverse description | Complex multi-figure composition depicting Sarapis enthroned, seated left, holding a long sceptre in his left hand, with the modius visible on his head. To his left, the three-headed hound Cerberus sits at the base of the throne. Demeter stands facing left, holding a torch, accompanied by a smaller kneeling figure to her left. Hermes stands to the right of the composition, facing left, holding a caduceus. Above the scene, two Nikai appear to support or flank a bust, contributing to the elaborate theological program typical of large Alexandrian drachm-class bronzes of the Trajanic period. |
