| Reverse description | The river god Nilus represented as a semi-recumbent male figure reclining to the left, his powerful form supported on the rocky bank of the Nile. He holds a tall reed stalk in his raised right hand and a cornucopia overflowing with fruits and grain in his left arm, symbolising Egypt's agricultural abundance. A crocodile, the emblematic beast of the Nile, is depicted beside him in the lower field. The date regnal formula L ΚΒ (Year 22, corresponding to 158–159 AD) appears in the field, serving as the primary chronological indicator for this Alexandrian tetradrachm. |
