| Reverse description | An eagle stands facing left with head turned to the right, its wings partially spread, holding a wreath in its beak — the emblematic reverse type of Alexandrian imperial coinage. The bird is rendered in the bold, schematic style typical of Alexandrian provincial issues of the early third century. The date regnal year marker L Β (year 2, corresponding to 222–223 AD) appears in the field, with L to the left and Β to the right of the eagle. The composition is centered on a flat, slightly irregular billon flan with a beaded border visible at the periphery. |
