| Reverse description | Jugate busts of Helios and Selene facing right, with Helios depicted radiate-headed and draped in the foreground, and Selene behind him, crowned with a crescent and draped. The pairing of the solar and lunar deities in jugate form is a distinctive motif of Alexandrian provincial coinage. The regnal year legend appears in the left field. The artistic rendering reflects the syncretic Greco-Egyptian religious iconography favored at the Alexandrian mint. |
