| Reverse description | The syncretic deity Amon-Ra stands in left-facing profile, depicted bearded and wearing the characteristic sun disk set upon ram horns as a headdress. The god holds a long sceptre in his raised left hand, while cradling a ram facing right in his right hand, referencing his ram-headed aspect. The composition reflects the Greco-Egyptian religious syncretism prevalent in Alexandrian numismatic iconography. The reverse legend identifies the Xoite nome and regnal year 15 of Trajan's reign, placing the issue firmly within the Egyptian nome coinage series. |
