| Reverse description | Athena standing facing with head turned to the left, clad in chiton and aegis, holding a small Nike in her extended right hand and resting her left hand upon a large grounded shield at her side. The goddess is depicted in a frontal, hieratic pose typical of Alexandrian provincial coinage of the Severan period. The regnal date legend L Α (Year 1, corresponding to 218/219 AD) appears in the field, denoting the first regnal year of Elagabalus. The reverse field is relatively plain, with the figure occupying the central space within a dotted border. |
