| Reverse description | Draped bust of the river-god Nilus facing right, crowned with a taenia and lotus-buds in the characteristic Alexandrian iconographic tradition. A cornucopia appears before the bust, above which is inscribed the numeral ΙϚ in the field. The regnal year date L ΙΔ (Year 14) appears as the primary reverse legend, referencing the 14th year of Antoninus Pius. The composition exemplifies the rich Nilotic religious imagery prevalent on Alexandrian tetradrachms of the period. |
