| Reverse description | Poseidon, nude, stands facing left with his right foot raised upon the prow of a galley, his body turned in a contrapposto stance. In his left hand he holds an upright trident, and in his extended right hand he grasps a dolphin by the tail. The composition is a canonical Alexandrian rendering of the sea god, reflecting the city's maritime identity and close association with Neptune. The regnal date legend L Ε, denoting the fifth year of Antoninus Pius's reign, appears divided in the field to left and right of the figure. |
