| Reverse description | Draped bust of the Graeco-Egyptian deity Sarapis facing right, wearing the distinctive kalathos (modius) atop his head, with curly beard and hair rendered in the canonical Hellenistic style. The god is shown with drapery over the left shoulder. The regnal year date L Δ (Year 4, corresponding to 220-221 AD) appears in the field, serving as the dating formula standard to Alexandrian coinage of the imperial period. |
