| Reverse description | A large eagle stands facing left with wings spread, rendered in the bold style typical of Alexandrian provincial coinage. The bird's powerful form occupies the majority of the reverse field, with its head turned to the left. The regnal date legend L ΙΕ (Year 15, corresponding to 111–112 AD) appears in the left field, serving as the principal dating mechanism of the Alexandrian tetradrachm series. The overall composition is characteristic of the standard eagle-reverse type issued throughout the reigns of the early imperial period at Alexandria. |
