| Reverse description | Head of Ammon facing right, adorned with the distinctive headdress comprising ram's horns curling around the ears and a solar disk above, with traces of drapery at the base of the neck. The syncretistic deity, combining the Egyptian god Amun with the Greek Zeus-Ammon, is rendered in the typical Alexandrian provincial style. The date regnal year legend L - Α (Year 1) appears flanking the deity's head in the field, confirming this as a first-year issue of Decius's reign. The reverse field shows minor wear consistent with circulation. |
