| Reverse description | Athena (or Roma) enthroned left on a high-backed throne, holding a small Nike in her extended right hand and a long spear in her left; a large round shield rests against the throne at her feet. The figure is rendered in the Alexandrian provincial style with draped garments and a helmeted head. The reverse field contains the regnal date legend ΕΤΟΥϹ Α, denoting the first year of Tacitus's reign. The overall composition is framed within a circular border typical of Alexandrian tetradrachm reverses of this period. |
