背面描述	Nike, the winged goddess of victory, standing right and holding a palm branch, presents a wreath to the Emperor, who stands facing with his head turned to the left, clad in military dress and holding a spear. The composition conveys imperial victory and divine sanction, a common theme in Alexandrian provincial coinage. The regnal year legend appears in the field.

附加信息	Elagabalus proved uniquely disruptive to Alexandrian coinage protocol. His reign introduced the solar cult of Elagabal to Egypt with considerable official pressure, and the provincial mint at Alexandria had to navigate a rapid succession of regnal year changes tied to an emperor whose political standing in Rome was deteriorating almost from the start. This piece dates to year five — his last — before the Praetorian Guard murdered him in a latrine and dragged his body through the streets of Rome in March 222. Dattari 4234 is among the scarcer year-five attributions for this type.
