| Reverse description | Draped bust of Sarapis facing right, the deity distinguished by the characteristic tall modius-like kalathos atop his head and a taenia or diadem binding his hair, rendered in the syncretic Alexandrian style that blends Greek and Egyptian religious iconography. The bust is set within a beaded border, with the regnal date legend L ΙΕ (Year 15) flanking the effigy — L to the left and ΙΕ to the right — serving as the date formula standard to Alexandrian coinage. The portrait conveys the majestic and beneficent character of this chief deity of the Ptolemaic-Roman religious tradition. |
